Skin Graft Surgery

I was a little bit scared and excited at the same time.The moment the surgeon started peeling off the skin of the patient, just like that of peeling a simple ripe mango, my body froze. Thoughts came in and out of my mind, my brain worked significantly quick. Next thing I found my self handling instrument to the surgeon. It was really a great experience, the operation was called Split-thickness Skin graft. The surgeon took a part of the patient's skin in his thigh. The skin was then patched in the dorsal surface of his foot. Finally, suturing was made. The surgery took about an hour, it was just a short surgery. After leaving the OR, I went to a fast food and ate before going back home. I deserved a sleep, so I went to bed. It made my day.....
