i had the
most heart-stopping surgery ive ever seen in my life.. my eyes were practically nosing behind every surgeons' backs to see them operate.
i got to go to the operational theatre today and they were doing a major surgery on a 19 year old girl who got into a car accident and fractured her whole face that her
nose bridge was broken and there was a
deep hollow area in her forehead. sounds deep?she was under the knife for
7 hours and i got to see them stitch her eyes together, cut open her scalp in half, cut out a bone tissue from her head using
drills and scalpels, and sutured it into her nose and her hollow forehead
using screws.
her front face looked like rolls of skin piled on top of each other. it was
sooo bloody!! and pretty disgusting but it was something i won't want to miss for anything else!
the worst thing was that they used scalpels and were practically poking underneath her skin to break through the tissue to get to her nose. and in the end i saw all the surgeons stitching up her scalp together. its so
amazing how there are so many layers in our head
:) it's def. a moment of a lifetime :)) and i got to wear
scrubs!
