anatomy

Greta is interested in becoming a surgeon.  

We had a long chat on the kitchen floor one afternoon about what goes on in an operating room, why people have surgeries,  how one practices on cadavers while studying to become a doctor or surgeon, what a cadaver is.  None of this really seemed to dissuade her, except for when I mentioned she would be seeing a lot of blood, at that moment a little washed from her face.

For the time being she will flip through Zach's Anatomy for Artists book, build her skeletons and memorize the placement of all the squishy innards.
