Typical For Surgeon To Call Night Before

[Jkm7]

My first surgery was emergent and I was the 'bumper' at Mass General.
I felt bad to know someone was sent home but was grateful, they gave me the emergency surgery I badly needed. Thank you to those who have endured the added stress on behalf of those of us who really couldn't wait.

My second surgery, I was on the other side of the fence so to speak and stressed some that I would be the 'bumpee' this time. Thankfully, that did not happen.

My surgeon had a late surgery and wasn't sure if he would be able to see me in the hospital the night before, so he sent one of his colleagues to talk to me.
My surgeon did manage to stop by later that evening and chat, which I greatly appreciated.
