The human body is the most fascinating thing in the world to me. I'm mesmerized by the way in which it functions. The way in which we are able to breathe subconsciously while we sleep and how the body creates platelets when it notices an injury. I guess what i love about the body is that it's self sustainable. I'm mostly interested in the dead human body though, that is why I am pursuing a career in pathology.
I like probing around and being able to feel the squishy brains and the smooth liver. I am very hands on when it comes to cadavers.I remember my first and only time I interacted with a corpse at Cornell Medical School. It was an unexplainable mixture of excitement and nervousness. I was excited to get my hands on it but nervous that I wouldn't have been able to handle the situation. But at the end of the day I was pleases to find out that I was not scared or intimidated while working with a dead body. It was one of the best days of my life. Knowing that I was able to handle such an experience so maturely was priceless.
I think your fascination with dead bodies is very interesting
ReplyDeleteThe more I read about your fascination with the human bodies the better I relate to you as a person. I have always had a huge concern about how the human body work and the thing that amaze me the most is how we as human are able to adapt to changes in nature and society. I would like to hear more about what you have to say about the human body and discuss more with you.
ReplyDeleteI never really thought about the body this way. I'll need a little more persuasion when it comes to squishy livers and brains. But when you get your findings from your research, tell me the story if how it went. I think it would be more interesting from your perspective.
ReplyDeleteXo (lol)
That is a really cool passion. You should absolutely read a book called "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" by Rebecca Skloot. Check it out on amazon. I promise if you are interested in pathology, you will find it fascinating. I'm not really interested in pathology at all, and I will never go to the doctor's office again without thinking about Henrietta Lacks. It is great that you passion lines up with a number of potential careers. How do you like your science classes?
