DeBAKEY

My partner John would probably not be alive today without the work of this man who invented the pump driving the heart/lung machine as well as the techniques of the coronary bypass.

There is more but those two things are enough.

I hear that he was an arrogant bastard workaholic who never let anyone, less himself, off the hook.

A tireless worker for better heart health.

Michael DeBakey, Rebuilder of Hearts, Dies at 99

Thanks Mike.
