Impressive young lady!

My Mom studied to be an X-Ray Tech; she went back to school at 47! Her favorite part of the whole course was the autopsy they had to perform to learn Human Anatomy.

No, Thanks! ;)

As I mentioned in a previous post I worked for a while in the Pathology Department of a well known hospital.While there I witnessed several autopsies...as well as a Clinical Pathological Conference which involved cutting up a brain to teach medical students and junior physicians and surgeons about different brain diseases.

During the first couple of autopsies I saw I had to hold onto an adjoining autopsy table in case my legs gave out on me.

It was almost 50 years ago but I remember it like it was yesterday.
