What It's Like Working With Dead Bodies

I just found your channel yesterday, and it is a wonderful feeling to know how her remains were likely treated and the enormous benefit derived from her donation. She didn't want a grave, and her ashes were not returned (her body may actually still be in use, which was fascinating to discover). I have no issue with any of this, and I plan to do the same thing.

The effects of radiation, depending on how much radiation there is, is different i think for the individual. But it is deadly. And causes many many different side effects. I will never ever get radiation if I have cancer. Stem cells are amazing but very expensive. Also weed and cbd can help a lot. I'm sorry you had to go through that but you're alive and I'm also going to donate my body for what trauma does to the body and brain.

[@robinkriss8773]

My grandma suffered from skin cancer probably caused by the long term effects of industrial lubricants used in the WW1 ammunition factory she worked in as a young adult. She was cremated post mortem (lung cancer) so never made it as a career cadaver. BUT she was a participant in early radiotherapy trials for skin cancers at the Christie’s Hospital in Manchester U.K. Folk volunteering for medical research are vital for the education of young scientists and health practitioners of various kinds!😊

As a boy about 70yrs ago I was so fascinated by what I knew of the human body that I composed an essay about an anonymous “machine”. I knew before I started that this would be unreal reading by any phlegmatic person. Readers would assume I was into science fiction which in fact I find totally uninteresting. I loathe movies with people in distorted body suits doing dumb things. My “machine” would function electronically, electrically, hydraulically,with tension return springs,fuelled by integrated converted vegetable matter and water. It would be supported by a system of internal scaffolding and contained by an elastic film strong enough to withstand pressure loads at given points in excess of 200lbs. I lived in New Zealand at the time and we used imperial measurement and I assumed my teachers feet were supporting about that much weight. I avoided use of anatomical terminology so gradually my “machine” became more and more improbable. My evolutionary acquaintances loathed it whereas my creationist acquaintances shared my awe in what was becoming evident. I chose not to speak of my machines ability to heal itself or reproduce itself because I didn’t want it to appear too “over the top”. That paper went the way of all my childhood paraphernalia lost forever but not from my memory. Add to this the computer system required to operate this machine both directly and indirectly. The latter being ability to maintain balance. Balance in situ would be phenomenal as at that time before computers as we know them now, my knowledge of balance was limited to my dad being an aircraft engineer and designer when they used high speed gyroscopes for orientation. But balance in motion would be mind blowing and put my creation into the realm of science fiction which I earnestly try to avoid. Although in deference to my friends this did smack of extraterrestrial. I was from the age of five years a believer in Creation but aware that in order to prove my concept I would need to show the absolute complexity of the human body as I knew of it then. This team above only compound my conviction. They describe human organs as chemical factories shaped to conform to surrounding organs and how they interact. As I grew to become a teenager I realised my “machine” came in the form of a gorgeous girls body and I became more intrigued. Now I’m old and content I stick to looking at flowers and their impossible structure of weather ability colour structure and way too complex for any man or woman to replicate. Then the seed of that flower. It is encoded not only to produce another plant but codes for replication millions of times over with potential variants in size shape and colour....all within that single seed. The form of that gorgeous girl who married me almost 50yrs ago who with a little help from me reproduced 4 beautiful children each one so different to either of us still fills me with awe. Regrettably she passed peacefully 5yrs ago this month. Where did she go? Well for a start the body she was born with was not the body she had at 7yrs of age or so my teachers told me. Her skin regenerated by the hour and finally her bones they said completely replace themselves over that 7yrs. I truly and deeply loved each generation of her from 19yrs till 64yrs and on and on in my memory. Will she be recreated? If so she would want it to be in a garden with her children, her 4 granddaughters and maybe me. Neither of us wished to be in a heaven looking down on the other in grief. We wanted to be asleep. I left Sunday school in Masterton NZ because my Sunday school teacher spoke in riddles. I set out to find for myself what is true and I found it....just sayin

If we choose instead to live life on our own terms and keep living in sin, we will not be allowed to enter heaven and will spend eternity with the rest of the nonbelievers in hell.

[@cathrinecalvert]

I worked in a mortuary that embalmed cadavers and assisted on a few of them. Embalming fluid is typically injected into the common carotid artery. The internal jugular vein is opened and a drain tube or forceps are inserted to keep the vein open. As embalming fluid is pumped into the body, the blood is displaced and drains from the open vein. Other arteries (femoral, brachial, etc.) can be used if it appears the embalming fluid is not reaching all regions of the body or if the carotid artery is in poor shape. Once arterial embalming is complete, a trocar is used for cavity embalming. The trocar is essentially a long (maybe 2 feet?),hollow, metal pipe with a spear point on one end. The other end can be hooked up to different hoses for aspiration or embalming. The trocar is typically inserted near the navel and is used to aspirate all internal organs of any remaining blood, fluids, liquid feces, and urine. Once aspiration is complete, the trocar is typically connected to a bottle of embalming fluid via a hose, and gravity is used to inject the embalming fluid into the abdominal cavity and organs. For our cadaver cases, the trocar was also used to penetrate the the cranial vault via the nasal sinus and inject embalming fluid for preservation of the brain. Most standard embalming fluid mixtures contain formaldehyde, dyes, and water, and are not very strong in terms of formaldehyde concentration. Cavity fluids are typically stronger than the solutions used for arterial embalming. The cadaver cases we embalmed used a much stronger solution that included phenol, among other chemicals.

Great channel! When I was studying Anatomy , our cadavers were embalmed as per usual , but we we also had the added feature that the arteries were injected with a red latex that was easily seen to give us an instant reference to the Atlas. Our dissecting tables were slightly sunken with a drain , as we needed some drainage for spillage when we poured preserving fluid over the cadaver and the linen before covering it with the plastic sheet after every session. The worst thing you could do is have a new blade on the scalpel as you could easily cut through and miss some essential structures. So my setup was a new blade for deep cuts ( on either a number 3 or 4 handle) , with some semi blunt to blunt blades for delicate cuts and scraping. Apart from that , most dissection was done with the back of the scalpel handle , and as you showed , the outside edges of the scissors , pincettes and gloved fingers. Keep up the great work! Greetings from South Africa.

I remember our class got two new donations, and we had to remove the skin from the specimen. We ALWAYS kept the faces of full body cadavers covered, and phones were NOT allowed out to protect the cadavers privacy. I never ate before the class because the smell of formaldehyde was overwhelming, & even though we wore lab coats during class I always went home smelling like it!
