She wanted to be embalmed, sliced up and digitized for the purpose of teaching But she ended up living 15 years and in that time recorded herself so students understand the woman behind the medical records She regularly visited the lab to see how her body would be sawed up and photographed, the fridge where she'd be kept, and to meet the students
And she wanted to direct some of the process, asking the team to saw her body to the sound of classical music, surrounded by roses (they played Mozart's Requiem and painted some roses on the door).

And her interactions with the students is a huge plus.
The Chicago Musem of Science and Industry, Has sections of a former employee on display, but they are about one inch thick.
They did that to a guy from my hometown. He murdered a man during a robbery of the man’s home and was sentenced to get the needle in Huntsville.
They cut him in three pieces and froze them. Then they thin sliced, or maybe planed him, taking a photo on each pass.
He is on the Internet.
Oh wait, that was just olive loaf.
It’s in the fridge around here someplace. Maybe behind the leftover bowl of stuffing...
milled??? sliced...
Sicko. That’s just morbid. Why do people wallow in this kinda crap?
I feel almost the same way. Except the teaching part. I just want the embalming and slicing thing.
Will go great with baby Swiss and dijon.
If you don't find it for awhile, don't worry .. that stuff has a half life of about 19 years ;-)
It’s a good thing there weren’t any hungry dogs in there when she was being deli sliced...
oooo*yuck*! ROFL!
Way too thick!
I wanna have my brain plasticized, then placed in a giant clear acrylic block after I kick the bucket. That way it can preserve all of my neural connections for a time it can be scanned and a digital copy of myself can be instanced.
While I know my soul will be gone to heaven, there should be enough data there to be scanned into a computer so I can sort of “live on” as a hologram that can warn future generations away from the many the dumb ass mistakes humanity tends to constantly repeat like socialism and pathological multiculturalism.
Ah, who am I kidding, my hologram would probably be turned off by some hologram haired future SJW goofball when I told them them up is up and down is down...
What a fascinating, though strange story.
My first thought is that once this lady was accepted for research, that one act gave her a grand sense of purpose.
This is why she lasted for so much longer than expected.
These students became the family she didn’t have.
I am reminded that when I meet a very cranky, snippy type of person, they may act that way because no one gave them enough love while growing up. Or they may not have been able to accept someone’s sincere caring.
And aliens from Mongo forced you to click on this article?
When I get deli meat sliced I try to stretch my budget by asking that all of my slices be single sided only.
As if this was not already gross enough.
*Thanks*
