[Edited 1/11/07 21:33pm] Use those nightmares and turn them into posts. It's cathartic and fun.  | |

They had to cut and grind the bones into shape and then drill holes through them. There were a few times it was hard to watch but it was edumacational so I did watch it all.
 Yep I'll agree about hip replacement surgery making me a bit uncomfortable. My mom had hip replacement surgery and they gave her a video of it to watch before she had it done. So were watching it and I said why would they want you to see this before they perform the surgery. I would have said no way after seeing that! 
The other night I was eating some food and TLC was on with a paralized woman giving birth and for some reason I just couldn't watch all of it. The baby looked grey and the blood on it and then they cut the woman and there was more blood and I had to throw away the rest of my food. I lost my appetite.
Now I can watch any horror movie and not freak out or feel sick. I think they don't bother me because they aren't real. On the other hand I've also been in a morgue and watched part of an autopsy. I was actually fascinated by it and what they do,and the weighing of the organs,stuff like that. I was able to see a section of the skull cut open and the brain exposed,as they were looking at the hematoma that killed the young man. It's scientific and not gross/gory. It was fascinating but I sometimes wonder how people can do that job every day and not let it get to them. I would think at some point you might break down. [Edited 1/11/07 23:43pm] | |

Anxiety said: no way. i can't even watch the fake surgery on those medical crime shows or on nip/tuck. i have to turn my head. gore is skanky unless it's so cheap and fake and over the top that i can laugh at it for what it is. that i don't mind.
I agree...real surgery-type gore is disgusting, but "Kill Bill" style gore is nothing. | |
