Zipper Head

Witness the stitches coming out, and the very young neurosurgeon who did it!  The doctor was not happy to learn that I was flying back to the States on Monday.  He told me that I should not fly anywhere until I have the piece of my skull put back.  All of the neurosurgeons at the hospital said the same thing.  I think they just want to cut my head open and do it themselves.  


He did forget one stitch, but fortunately I am married to a doctor (OK maybe not the exact same kind of doctor, but those are minor details...), and he removed the last one at the dinner table with toe nail clippers.  Classy.  I did insist that there was a lot of sterilizing alcohol involved.

Enjoy the video!!

  1. Hahaha nail clippers!! Classy indeed! (And I admit I'm too squeamish to watch your head unzip, but I'm sure it was good.)

  5. Thanks for sharing, Anne. Is that kid surgeon even old enough to mow lawns?! I’d go with Adam and the toenail clippers too!
