This is a CT of Katie Bryce, 6 (16) year old female, cerebachnoid aneurysm. Meredith: From a fall during rhythmic gymnastics, I remember. Derek: That the first surgery we ever scrubbed in together. Our first save. Right here is a cerebral cyst, tough save but we did it. I kissed you in the stairwell after the surgery. And this right here is where Dr. Bailey kicked you out of the surgery because she caught us in your driveway in my car. And right here, this was a centimar craniotomy and you held the clamp the entire time and never flinched. That’s when I knew you were gonna be an incredible surgeon. And Beth Munroe made our clinical trial a success by surviving, you talked me into putting her under. That’s when I knew I needed you. And this is today, post-op head CT of Izzie Stevens. See that, right there? Tumor free, because of you. You got me into the O.R.. If there’s a crisis you don’t freeze. You move forward, you get the rest of us to move forward because you’ve seen worse. You’ve survived worse. And you know we’ll survive too. You say you’re all dark and twisty.... it’s not a flaw .... it’s a strength. It makes you who you are. I’m not gonna get down on one knee. I’m not gonna ask a question. I love you Meredith Grey, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Meredith: And I want to spend the rest of my life with you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Grey’s Anatomy gets it right about PTSD - March 27 The March 26, 2009 episode of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy accurately depicts Dr. Owen Hunt’s PTSD as a a real war wound and mental illness which is treatable. PTSD is a brain disorder characterized by symptoms such as recurring nightmares, insomnia, depression, mood swings, and high levels of anxiety. This disorder has been linked to traumatic events such as combat stress and childhood abuse. With appropriate diagnosis and treatment with a wide variety of therapies along with medication, recovery can be achieved. Magnetic imaging (MRI) studies and PET scans have identified areas of the brain where significant changes have been seen in patients suffering from PTSD. The primary area of focus is the hippocampus which plays a big role in short-term memories and emotions. The amygdala which controls emotional memories was first thought to be the primary focus, but more recent studies have shown the hippocampus may be the real link........ leap again http://www.examiner.com/x-5524-LA-Mental-Health-Examiner~y2009m3d27-Greys-Anatomy-gets-it-right-about-PTSD Edited by jenlou1986, Apr 4 2009, 02:13 AM.
