I put the kibosh on the word "cadaver" during dinner in med school. Now, I just take a few steps away from him and pretend I don't know him when he starts to loudly inquire "is it your vagina? What does it look like?" whilst we walk through Target. You get hardened. I hear "Are you passing gas? Have you had a bowel movement?" in his phone conversations all.the.time. Good times.

DH loves to tell the story of his cadaver, in which he found the ACTUAL cause of death vs. what was reported on the first autopsy (heart attack). It was some rare bowel disorder (where the bowel fills with blood and kills you instantly), and his med school professors had him write up his find for a journal.Married to a peds surgeon attending

Oh - and you don't EVER want to look at my DH's camera phone roll. He uses that to document cases - and occasionally take pictures of the kids - that I can never, ever show anyone without printing out.Angie
