Corpse...

Today I got to see a cadaver. I even got to put on gloves and touch all his organs. I got to actually take his heart out of his body and explore it. He had a feeding tube in and when looking at his removed ribs there were wires from a previous open heart surgery. He didn't have any eyes or a brain just an empty skull. His skin was thick and leathery and it was the worst smell I have ever smelled but I handled it well. Plus he was a leg amputee which brings me to my quotation of the day: "I have no idea who's leg this is." Said by my anatomy teacher when there was some random leg next to the stump of the man's body. It was just a full leg up to the hip just lying there. It was really funny. The hip bone was sticking out so I got to touch it. I appreciate the old man for donating his body to science. I also appreciate the leg for donating it's leg to science!
