Apparently there are a lot of redundancies in the cardiovascular system. And then they go and design the heart as a single point of failure. *d'oh!* What were they thinking?
Ah, yes, "intelligent design."
Based on recent experience, I don't think 40 minutes is too long to wait; even with P's outpatient skin graft, I think he was in the recovery room longer than that, and they generally don't let family see the patient till they're out of the recovery room.
Again based on recent experience, but with two hospitals other than the one Richard is in, I think that generally the medical care is much better than the administrative/staff/etc. performance.
