....when I was a student nurse, we were granted the privilege of touring the cadaver lab at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio.....it was fascinating from a pure anatomical standpoint to see human bodies in various stages of dissection, but then-there were the platforms where bodies that had been donated to the program lay peacefully in their shrouds, awaiting their turn with the soon to be physicians....each one had a large sign at the foot of their biers that gave their names, ages at death and what their occupations had been....part of the reasoning behind it was to allow the students to see how different jobs had altered the bodies inner physiology, but-and most importantly-according to the gentleman who ran the lab, was so that those that dealt with the bodies would never EVER forget that these had been real people with real lives and were to be accorded the respect of same....not to act like they were just inanimate lumps of study material....
to sit in on an autopsy. Fascinating stuff.

Hey Dana Jean!

May I ask, what did you find fascinating, please?

I always remember the smell and sounds.

The smell of the saw cutting into the cranium to inspect the brain. The smell of bone ... particles... in the air? The sound of the face being peeled away from the skull. The smell AND sound of the intestines being taken out of the body.
The smell of a burn victim. It smells like sweet pork.

I've only been at one of a floater-A person found in water after a few days. Poke a few holes in the abdomen to let the gases out slowly so it doesn't explode.


I should probably shut up and sit down now.

I have been trying to remember the name of a movie and I'm stumped. I Googled the he11 out of it but nothing.

The movie is most likely an indie. I think~ the name is a single word. Maybe a male name.

A 10/11 year old boy. He has a newborn sister. He screws with his mother's meds to make her insane. (I don't remember what he did to his father but he did something.) His grandmother comes in to take care of the baby sister. I remember the grandmother with the baby carriage atop some stairs and it LOOKS like the baby carriage falls down, down.

I thought it was the boy was trying to kill the baby sister but it turns out he wanted to kill the parents so he and baby sister will go live with his uncle. The uncle he is in love with and be a family. :Oo:

I FOUND IT!!

The name of the movie is ....

Joshua
The arrival of a newborn girl causes the gradual disintegration of the Cairn family; particularly for 9-year-old Joshua (Kogan), an eccentric boy whose proper upbringing and refined tastes both take a sinister turn.

Cool movie!

Absolutely everything about it was fascinating. She was an old lady who had come into the hospital for some surgery, I forget what, but she died during the operation. Walking in, she was just flat naked, no sheet covering her at all. And I remember feeling horrible for her because I knew that she was probably a very modest woman in life and here were these 3 strangers looking at her inside and out.

The fact that the doctor had a big pickle jar on a roller cart next to the table was a puzzler, and he was dictating while he was doing his examination. He did the Y incision, and then he took this big long metal hook and stuck it in the top ribs somewhere, I think the collar bone actually -- and braced his foot on the edge of the table and then ripped down through the ribs on both sides. They made this pop, pop, pop, pop sound all the way down until the bottom rib which is too thick to get through. He then took like garden pruners and cut those bottom ribs and lifted off the chest plate.

From that point on, he took organs out, weighed them, took a piece of each and put in the pickle jar. He then put the organs in a plastic bag. When he got to the heart, he did this ginsu knife work like some chef at a Benihana. So quick, he made these slices through the heart and it sort of just splayed open.

He told us he was looking for a blood clot. He did not find it in the body, but then did the head sure that it was in the brain. When he did the incision over the top of the head, ear to ear, and stripped the face down, it was like a rubber mask, the top of her hair was by her mouth. He took the bone saw and took the skull cap off and removed the brain, snipping all the little connections. He said that he would take the brain back to the lab to study, but first, he took a syringe of water and injected it into her neck (which was open because of Y incision so he just found the artery and shot the water through, I pulled the girl with me around to the empty skull because we were watching to see if a blood clot came out, it did not. He then put a paper towel in the empty skull to absorb fluids and then he put the skull cap back on, pulled the face up and did these big stitches in her head. He sealed the plastic bag of organs and placed back in the body cavity, put the rib plate back on and did these big stitches to close her up. He said the funeral home would make those nicer. So, she was buried without her brain (which I'm sure families don't realize), and every organ, a piece went in the pickle jar for further study. The pickle jar was full by the time he was done.

The absolute weirdest thing about it? I will never forget her name -- it is the same as one of my best friends . ( I nanny her grandchildren.)

The whole thing was just surreal. I never looked at her like a real body. She really wasn't there.

Thank you for sharing that.
The face peeling thing? THat was sorta freaky for me. Here I am , a human being, dead yes, BUT check this out! My face peels away from my skull. Dead white, gleaming, skull, face peeled off and scrunched up. Fascinating.

You know I study pathology. Especially pysch pathology.

When I hear/read about someone that immolates themselves, cuts/saws off a body part or enucleates an eye (or both) I automatically think of a specific psych diagnosis. (I won't say which diagnosis here.)

I watched a video of a man who walks into his work shop, turns on his table band saw, leans over it and cuts himself in half. Literally, cuts himself in half. The top of his torso falls over onto the floor yet his bottom half from his waist down, legs and feet stay upright.

Have mercy. I have my free Show Time channel on in the background. Some woman is getting nailed (Spankish). Change channel. :Oo:

....quite the thumbnail sketch of the everyday life of a Medical Examiner or Coroner....and sadly, it becomes just that commonplace and routine, slab em, carve em, sew em up and move on....unless you pay particular care-they cease to be anything but flesh piles, not every ME is like Ducky on NCIS......

Yup that is exactly how it goes..the people that do that job have a special kind of toughness,to do that day in and out,and think when child or baby dies under questionable circumstances..not good.

I looked and Netflix doesn't have The Experiment right now. :( But thanks for the heads up.

I'm really looking forward to watching


You know, some people will see stuff like this and still not believe it's true.

BTW-have you seen Dear White People? It was very interesting and funny!

Later! (Oh. Did you get out of town? Rain? Snow?)
