Don't Let This Be The End

Yesterday I tried to dissect an animal for the 1st time. However, before I could even look at the specimen for 5 minutes I realized that I was experiencing symptoms such as
  • Increased rate of heartbeat
  • Elevated blood pressure
  • Nauseous, upset tummy
  • Dizzy
indicating that I either have Haemophobia (extreme fear of blood) or Necrophobia (irrational fear for corpse). Here you have a soft/weak guy who can't stand the sight of a dead rat with its internal organs exposed. Sigh... Thankfully I never intended to pursue a medical career after primary education...

    you will feel that for the first time.That is alright if the rat is killed by ether or chloroform.There is a way where you have to kill the specimen by puncture it's spine/brain~
