“The Greatest of The Great!”
This great man saved my life when it appeared there was not a chance for me. He has been by my side through almost 50 surgeries, and has always been kind, incredibly patient friendly, and we have kept in touch ever since that day when another did a horrible thing to me. Dr. Furman fixed the mistake, and fixed me so I could go on to live more years, or I would have been died at age 33 only. Now I am in for another big surgery, and this great man is once again offering to be there for me, even though he can't do neurosurgery.. Just knowing he will be there is enough to get me to wake up again. Dr. Furman, How can one thank you for giving them their life back again? I love you dearly. Terri D.
