Cadavers...Yesterday I was in my gross anatomy class of the head and neck feeling just fine. Then it came time to go to the lab, which is a large room filled with skeletons, dissected cavers, heads, hearts, lungs, and brains. This normally doesn't bother me because it's chilly in there and the smell is to a minimum. However, yesterday it was extremely warm in there and the stench was unreal. Even so my stomach was still holding up fairly well as the instructor pointed out several structures on the dissected neck of the caver. But then for some reason he decides to open up the chest cavity taking out the liver(which is huge!!!), heart, lungs, and moving around the intestines. Well I felt so faint, I started getting extremely hot, and light headed and felt like I was going to lose my breakfast. I survived after sitting down for a second and then leaving early. Gross anatomy...not the best class to have at 8:00 in the morning...thank you DAL.
