Roger Frisch of Plymouth, Minn., lay on the operating table with his hands clutching his violin to his chin. While surgeons operated on Frisch's brain, Frisch began to play the chords he's known for more than 30 years. It seemed like a scene from a science fiction movie. But every note he played told the surgeons whether the electronic pulses they were sending to his brain worked to ease his body's tremors. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/bizzareweird/410-plays-violinRoger Frisch of Plymouth, Minn., lay on the operating table with his hands clutching... more

Wooo-nellie!
Teaser of Angela Bonavoglia's new WMC post:
At a “first-ever” conference on what they hope is a growing field, surgeons showed an appalling indifference to how women experience sexual pleasure.
Some 150 gynecologists, urogynecologists and plastic surgeons met last month to observe, in bloody still shots and loops of video, the signature ways that the fathers of vaginal cosmetic surgery—and they’re all men—carve, burn, cauterize, and stitch the female labia, clitoral environs, vaginal canal, and other points south. They cut in order to create supposedly longed for “designer” vaginas and thereby “enhance sexual gratification.”Wooo-nellie!

For many, the difference between life and death depends on the country they were born.
Like Holman Velasquez. Holman was born with congenital heart disease in Nicaragua,
a country that is in the process of developing a successful pediatric heart surgery program.
In Nicaragua, even if children survive the surgery, they run a high risk of dying from
infection in the intensive care unit afterward. In order to survive to adulthood,
Holman must undergo open heart surgery in the country he calls home.
With no money to explore foreign options, Holman and his mother must
undergo a test of faith that nearly shatters their deep strength of spirit.
Doctors from Loma Linda partner with Surgeons of Hope, a foundation devoted
to bringing surgical care to indigent children in developing countries.
But perhaps what is most important, is the training that is left behind.
