Surgical endeavors

A surgical team from Atlanta is here this week. 40 Nicaraguan women will receive OB-GYN related surgeries over the next 3 days, at no cost to them. The doctors were gracious enough to let some of us gown up and sit in on a few operations. One of the cooler things I've ever experienced.

The surgery I witnessed from the initial incision to the stitching up was a hysterectomy. Intense. Here's some pics.







That's an opened abdominal cavity behind me...
