Long time.............

Greetings! I'm baaaaaaaaaaaccccccckkkkkkkk! Ok, so the new job is getting easier! I halfway understand medical charts and whatnot now. And, I'm getting much better at the harvest. In fact, the other night I harvested at LifeShare, which is the tissue bank here in OK. I got there early enough to watch the entire procedure that they do. It was pretty cool. The man who had died was kind enough to be an organ, tissue and eye donor. So, after the organ harvest, tissue was next. They procured the skin, bones from his legs and the tendons. Now, I enjoyed watching it. It would not be for everyone to see, though. It's a little gruesome....So, when they finished, I went for the eyes. I kept thinking that that poor man had no idea he was going to be doing that today. But, he didn't feel a thing and think of the people he helped. Donation is a good thing!
