Felt like I was right there too Windsong. Wow, I thought about/ but never realized what it's like for the surgeon.
Thank you my friend (& I must thank my doc when I see him in June... everytime I'm in the office I start crying like a baby, I gotta stop that !), Nancy

The article is wonderful to read. Thanks for linking us. My husband waiting in the wings said my surgeon looked totally drained when he came out to talk. Gosh! I am soo lucky my doctor was so good.

ya, The malignant comment at the end of the article, reminds me of how grateful we all feel when we found out that ANs are mostly BENIGN. The good sounding word.

Interesting!! I didn't realize they took a lunch break!!
Thanks

That is a good article. My docs started at 7 am and finished at 1 am. My dh said the nurse kept telling him "the doctor is on the microscope". I can't imagine doing ANYTHING for that long. I do know that they switched off but my dh saw both drs at the end of surgery and they were back there at 6 am the next day. Wow.
