I don't believe this for a second. The anesthesiologist is obligated to tell them this, they meet and discuss this kind of thing with the family/patient. It isn't a breach of protocol, the doctor and surgeon would also have been informed and would have relayed as well.

Fear mongering bullshit.

I agree, sounds suspicious and likely misremembered.
I can confirm it with my mother, but this is what happened to the best of my recollection. You can fuck right off with your accusation that I am fabricating this story.

For reference, this happened about 20 years ago.
