Best Thoracic Surgeon Ever!

Dr. Ford was fantastic. She showed up per op to spend some time explaining what was going to happen and the best part was we prayed prior to the operation. I do not remember anything during until after I woke up (post op). I had zero pain, zero discomfort. The only thing I wanted was Food. I fail to see why people I have talked to say it was so painful afterwards. I give kudos to Dr. Ford for the success of this.
