Me, a fool, on Saturday afternoon: Man, it sucks that we're not going to hear from the surgeon until at least Monday.

The surgeon, Saturday, 6pm: "Sorry to call you so late. Are you available to come see me at 10:30am tomorrow?"

My oncologist, my respiratory specialist, and a cardiologist to whom I am socially connected are all in agreement that this guy is a top tier cardiothoracic surgeon.

I don't know why I would have expected him to take weekends off.

Thanks. I might get to make a dramatic update from the ICU (for a lot of thoracic surgery overnighting in ICU is a standard precaution) and everything.

Fingers crossed!

I suspect that won't be the concern so much as "so your lungs experienced Trauma and you have asthma so, like, we want to watch them suspiciously for a while before we send you back to ward".
