You might not believe this but having spent hours upon hours in "open heart" surgery standing in for the purpose of monitoring/instruction of various products I had sold to the hospital, I can tell you that "open heart" surgery is virtually bloodless. The patient is put on a cardio-pulamonary bypass pump whick collects all blood returning to the heart- runs it through an oxgenator and returns it to the body as arterial(oxygenated) blood for circulation to the body. This arrangement replaces both the function of the heart as a pump and the respiation of the lungs.
..but I certainly understand what you mean!!!! Murphy is alive and doing quite well these days. Congrats!! ...and tight lines to you as well.
