Amazing Surgery

This morning, our next door neighbour (a Neurosurgical theatre nurse)
told us that she had been on TV on Thursday night whilst they filmed live surgery for the removal of a pituitary tumour - amazingly removed via a nostril).

She had forgotten to tell anyone - so no-one had seen the surgery! I'd actually seen it advertised and because it's the hospital I attend for my transplant, had been tempted to watch - but changed my mind at the last moment and watched the news instead.

Jackie says the patient is doing fine and they hope she will be discharged on Tuesday!
