Yeah.

And I think this kind of holistic view of surgery ceremony, of preparing patients before, of how the environment is and how you do it and the post-op care, which is quite different, it's important.

But I just want to touch on something I know you know about and I want to dive in because people don't think about this when it comes to surgery.

And it's going to sound very crass and you probably heard this in medical school, but

You remember those patients you'd operate on and their tissues would just fall apart?

Like you try to like sew them and you're in the wound or in the surgical field.

Yeah, it's like tissue paper.

And it's like, yeah, you can't grab onto it with a needle and it'll rip.

And we had a terrible saying for it.

Do you remember what that is?

Tell me.

Piss poor protoplasm.

Oh, yeah.

Piss-poor protoplasm.

It's terrible.

It's kind of what doctors do to sort of deal with the gruesomeness of all the things they have to do is make jokes.

But it's a real thing.

And I think it has to do with how your body heals in wounds.

And the cause of that...

in my belief, is that it's people's overall health and diet and nutritional status.
