1. Why I need anatomy
If I am not sure where the person is hurt, how can I help the doctor?
In school for bachelors, took one whole year
Many advanced degrees require 2- 3 years
Also helped me REALLY enjoy Pathophysiology

Some cuts require staples
Others don’t even think

3. If I didn’t know where these bones were:
Called a Boxer’s fracture

4. Could not help putting back together
True Story: my husband fell on a hole he had just dug

5. Anatomy is more than just seeing a heart

6. It is also helping to see what is not right in how the heart is working
A blocked coronary artery

7. Knowing how things go in, (Esophagus and Stomach)

8. Something will come out (colonoscopy)
A colon with a polyp

9. I can begin to see differences
