I was reading a
post on
Boing Boing today about David LaPuma, a grad student, who was diagnosed with
meningmioma
- a brain tumor. David found out from doctors that he had his tumour after a complaint that he had lost is sense of
smell about 10 months ago.
David went under the knife to have the tumor removed, and documented the surgery on his
blog.
Me, being of inquisitive mind, had to read about it. David also
had pictures taken of the op, which are available on his
flickr site
here.
Beware, if you get squeamish from looking at pictures of someone's brain
exposed to daylight then these pictures are not for your viewing.
