teeth pulled by dental college without anesthesia. sounds painful doesn't it? Someone heard her scream who was at hospice at the time. people can't loan their wives to dental schools to practice pulling teeth.

Hi, tut -- I'd perhaps heard and been appalled by it, but no, I did not know that it had been done without anesthesia, nor that she was crying out in pain. But I'd never heard that someone had heard her crying out in pain when her teeth (was it all 5 at once?) were extracted.

Can you imagine? Can you imagine anyone doing that, taking teeth out one by one (was it all 4-5 at once?), continuing to do that, with the person crying out in pain?

It was at the time that her parents were (conveniently) prohibited from seeing her. How did they, how did we find out about this?

clarification: I knew last spring as we were following this that her teeth had been extracted -- but I did not "know" it was without anesthesia. >> How is that substantiated?

How could any students, any professors be a part of that, with a human being in pain? and the implication they thought it was a normal, acceptable thing? How brutal and shameful.
