Just don't want C to get hurt. And if he does decide to take her back I wouldn't take her back immediately. Make her earn her welcome back

I appreciate it. I don't know what she wants with me or anything. Deleted me on facebook, didn't talk to me for a week then calls me out of nowhere and stops just to talk to me.

Public health/Kinesiology. The formaldehyde smell wasn't all that strong because they're not super fresh, but the phenol was strong. There were two, both already mostly skinned (one still had facial skin, but top of skull removed, the other was face down). Took some working up to finally get in there and picking around at muscle tissues, but after a while you get used to it.

A few people won't be able to handle it at first. We had about fifteen people in, two couldn't deal, one was a girl who ended up getting a bit nauseous but she's adjusting. The other was a guy who was Army EOD, served two tours and had been around dead bodies. He finally came around to working with muscular tissue today.

I really hate to agree with 14, but that's what I was thinking. Her new life might not be cracked up to be what she wanted or thought it would be.

Pretty cool. Age of the cadavers? Cause of death? Anything wrong with them, such as tumors, cancer, necrosis, that you got to observe?

And for the love of god, if you take anatomy, don't do it at a 4x accelerated pace like I am. This is ridiculous. I am literally studying or in class 14-16 hours a day, seven days a week and am still averaging a C+ in my work so far.

Natural death, I guess, I can't really tell how old they are. I would suppose they have to be in reasonable shape at time of death because they're used for anatomical study.

I'm not taking her back right now if that's what she's doing. She's not gonna just forget I exist and then want me back.
