Toe tag

the magnitude of what I was doing became more evident. As I approached the entrance of the forensic center with any case, I get knots in my stomach. The security was awaiting my arrival at the morgue, and they knew the case I was bringing in. As a member of the funeral service field, I have worked closely with security on many occasions. The guards are typically somewhat chipper even though we only meet for sad interactions, but when you bring in a child they have few words to say. I filled out the necessary paperwork to transfer the decedent to the morgue. Unfortunately, when we bring a decedent in for an autopsy (also called a post) we most account for all personal affects that come in with them, and confirm the identity (the toe tag must match the tag attached to the zipper of the body bag). This meant we had to open the bag, and this was the first time I had got a good look at the toddler. I was taken away, I couldn’t believe she was gone, and more so I couldn’t believe how bad she looked. We finished the paper work, I loaded my cot back in the van, and left with watery eyes. As I was leaving Fort Wayne, I still could not comprehend how something like this could happen. A beautiful young soul had been taken far too soon, and I was not sure how I could handle it. What seemed like a long drive to Fort Wayne, was even longer going home. I cried like I had never cried before, I cursed God, questioned my faith, and most of all questioned why I ever considered becoming a…

As stated by Seattle Children’s Hospital, they range from the simplicity of just skin and soft tissue all the way to the complexity of skin and soft tissue with a bone and joint.

Declawing Cats: It Should Be Illegal In 2015 New York lawmakers considered a bill to ban the practice of declawing cats. The proposed legislation caused many debates amongst veterinarians, animal behaviorists, and pet owners as to whether or not it should be illegal. Onychectomy or declawing is a procedure where the toe bones and attached claws of a cat are amputated through a surgical operation. Advocates of declawing cats argue that it is a necessary procedure to provide cats a better chance…

on, I would be protected from the fast and hard fist. My brace could have acted like a metal suit of armor if that problem ever came across. I also learned a fun and useful trick when I had it. True, it is probably not an extremely challenging trick and many people can do it, but still it was handy and fun to use. When I had the brace on, bending down to get something off the ground was doable, but it was very incommodious to do. So I tried to avoid it as much as I could. I discovered a trick…

I did not mind of course because this is probably the last time I see that place. In short, every field trip or vacation…

During my time playing AAU basketball so many memories were made. They weren 't just your typical memories though, they were memories I’ll never forget. One of my favorite memories of AAU was during my last year. We went bowling at three different bowling alleys in one day. The first bowling alley was half bowling and half laser tag. My team and another Comets team decided to play laser tag against each other, and of course my team won. As we walked over to the bowling alley, the scent of deep…
