    Until I was about to leave and mentioned that the surgeon did not speak to anyone in my family, did they call someone to come in. My husband is a thoracic surgeon at UAB and he said the surgeon, in elective cases like mine, always goes to talk to the family. He was disappointed and a bit surprised that the surgeon never even called him.
