Just woke and going through the thread. Great to hear surgery went well. Still has rocky road of post op. But at least the technical part went well. |

Glad Jon made it out of surgery. Hope he continues to do well. I've been to a couple of lectures by Dr. Joel Cooper, the surgeon who pioneered the double lung transplant and came up with the idea of the omentum wrap. Amazing surgery. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

Lung transplant surgery video found on YouTube. WARNING: video of real surgery, very graphic, do not watch if you're squeamish That's an old video from the 1980's ... haven't been able to find lung transplant surgery video that's more recent.

Jon and I are usually the first ones up as far as TNCR goes, and he usually posts something before I do. I have great joy for him this morning, but I'm missing his early post(s).

Thanks for finding that, Ax. It reinforces how damn complicated this surgery is. It also talks about the physiologic stresses it places on the patient. |

That's why I specified "as far as TNCR goes". Klaus will post at that hour sometimes, but I don't think you do very often. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

Sending more good wishes for you, Jon. I have great confidence in your ability to get through this with great success, far more than the average, because you're an above average kind of guy.
