toward and away
Our lab today was all about suturing. We practiced a couple different techniques on pigs feet. It was great fun learning how it is done. I'm not a pro, but I enjoyed doing it. It is hard to maneuver the tools and not bend the needles (the pig skin is a little tougher than live human skin). I'm sure every time I see stitches I will be critiquing the work done. Doing the procedure labs always gets me excited for rotations. Only eight more weeks until they begin.

I'm totally impressed that putting stitches in pigs feet doesn't bother you! You'll be a great PA!
ReplyDeleteWow, pigs feet! That sounds gross :) We really should get together! We should have you and Rachel come over for dinner on a Sunday. E-mail me and let me know what day in the next few weeks, would work best for you. amy_m_cowley@yahoo.com
