They ought to be joined just like You've written but there is a small
bug :) when I run the statement against physical data if _ have one
person who has procedures which have end_date filled and procedures
with null end_date (opened) they appear in results as two separate
rows one with the 'SUM' column filled and days column null and the
other is all the way round.
