@rlhix Wow. I have to think this was a rare combination of surgical skill, timing, and patient characteristics. Mostly surgical skill. Unreal.

I broke the Mayo Blood Bank. They ran out of O negative. Monday night, We have plenty of O neg. Wed morning, we ran out of O neg. The surgeon is the chair of cardiovascular/thoracic surgery at Mayo Jacksonville. He had a top team in there that day. He does heart transplants, heart-lung transplants, CABG, Bentall procedures, aortic aneurysms and as he put it, all the weird stuff. I checked off a lot of boxes.
