High performance

Yesterday (Monday) was our first day of operating. We did two cases, one a 26 yo women, the other a young child. Both cases presented some challenges but the results were great. We walked to the hospital at 6:30 am and walked home in the rain at 8:00 pm. It was a long day but a great day. Both patients are in CICU doing very well. The CICU nurses are taking great care of them. Today we have two more case. The first is another young child that is really ill.
I am not a medical worker, my wife is. I have always respected the field, but after having the privilege to help them and see what they do, well, all I can say is they all are amazing. The level of expertise, the amount of hard work, and above all the love and care of their patients was beyond imagination. I stood and watched them perform with better team work than any professional sport team. They are all heroes in my eyes.
Today more nurses begin there work as patients can leave CICU. These patients will never know better care.
We will do five days in a row of surgery (a change from the planned four days). Then surgery will have one day off to let the CICU clear some patients.
