Steve Busalacchi Column Featured in Capital Times

December 14, 2007

Candidate member Steve Busalacchi was recently a featured guest columnist in Madison’s Capital Times. His column is about surgeons getting a little help from above in the operating room:

A patient dies on the operating table, but surgeon John Riesch of Menomonee Falls is able to revive him. When he regains consciousness, the doctor asks whether he remembers anything.

“I had the nicest visit with Tommy,” the patient replies.

“Tommy. Who’s that?” the doctor inquires.

“You don’t know him. We lost our son so many years ago. He said, ‘Dad, I’ve been waiting for you for so long. It’s nice to see you.’ “

Dr. Riesch says he’s had lots of patients who’ve reported out-of-body experiences during his four decades of surgical experience. “That’s exciting, and it really makes you believe. No matter how smart you become in your field of medicine or whatever, there’s something else controlling all of this,” asserts Riesch.
