It's 7:30pm. After 8.5 hours,
Theresa's operation is over. After a big operation,
you would have thought to yourself, "I'm going to go home
and I'm going to go to sleep." You just don't. You just continue
kind of buzzing, thinking about it. I can't let go. I will often take my work home. I will sometimes wake up through
the night thinking about... You know, what could
I have done differently? What will I do? Et cetera.
So it does affect me. From a personal point of view, there
are two really satisfying aspects, so the technical challenge
of doing a major operation and it being a technical success. You all right there, Theresa? But then also you've got the
satisfaction of seeing the patient doing well and hopefully Theresa
kind of demonstrates that. Hello there. You're just waking up
from the operation, OK? Just try and keep nice and still
for me

It's 7:30pm.
00:00:03.016 --> 00:00:08.016
After 8.5 hours,
Theresa's operation is over.
00:00:10.052 --> 00:00:13.012
After a big operation,
you would have thought to yourself,
00:00:13.012 --> 00:00:15.036
"I'm going to go home
and I'm going to go to sleep."
00:00:15.036 --> 00:00:18.008
You just don't. You just continue
kind of buzzing, thinking about it.
00:00:18.008 --> 00:00:20.028
I can't let go.
00:00:20.028 --> 00:00:23.064
I will often take my work home.
00:00:23.064 --> 00:00:26.036
I will sometimes wake up through
the night thinking about...
00:00:27.056 --> 00:00:30.016
You know, what could
I have done differently?
00:00:30.016 --> 00:00:34.998
What will I do? Et cetera.
So it does affect me.
00:00:34.998 --> 00:00:37.008
From a personal point of view, there
are two really satisfying aspects,
00:00:37.008 --> 00:00:40.024
so the technical challenge
of doing a major operation
00:00:40.024 --> 00:00:42.028
and it being a technical success.
00:00:44.999 --> 00:00:46.999
You all right there, Theresa?
00:00:46.999 --> 00:00:48.032
But then also you've got the
satisfaction
00:00:48.032 --> 00:00:50.052
of seeing the patient doing well
00:00:50.052 --> 00:00:53.092
and hopefully Theresa
kind of demonstrates that.
00:00:53.092 --> 00:00:56.068
Hello there. You're just waking up
from the operation, OK?
00:00:56.068 --> 00:00:59.044
Just try and keep nice and still
for me.
