Feel better soon. Make Shell wait on you for a few days.
I'm supposed to be resting for 5 days, and I'm not allowed to lift or push anything heavier than 10 pounds for 5 weeks.

Did you ask how the control system works? Are there programmed movements (like for suture from point a to point b)? I wonder if there is a big red button to stop everything like there is as gas stations.
I didn't ask no, but I presume a lot of it is manual control from the surgeon, just with very precise movements. I would imagine there is definitely a big red button that halts the robot if anything goes wrong.
