to close to home for me but nice shoot

that would be me in the 2nd looking over the blood brain barrier and suggesting they get a move on

Thank you. Anesthesiologist?

Indeed, not the time or place for foot dragging.

Wonderful series of images.

Wonderful images, I'm envious. My perspective was looking up while the surgeons completed 8 cardiac grafts 😁. Of course I was unable to see or hear anything, being heavily anesthetized, but  I did gain a healthy respect for the teams involved in these procedures. I subsequently worked for almost 15 years with surgeons, cardiac nurses, and cardiac rehabilitation nurses helping patients and families deal with their issues involving cardiac surgery. Years ago, before HIPPA, I remember there was a pediatric surgeon who was a Leica photographer frequenting this site who produced a series of sensitive photographs of his patients in medical environments.

Thanks very much. Six grafts is pretty extreme. I admire your response to the surgery.
