"Seeing my heart for the first time is an emotional and surreal experience."

"It caused me so much pain and turmoil when it was inside me. Seeing it sitting here is extremely bizarre and very strange."

It gets more everyday if more of your organs are on display, not just one.

It's more like the casual brain-in-a-vat scene, ``That's you over there.''

A woman in childbirth class with me once related the story of how she and her siblings, waiting in the hospital for their mother to emerge from hysterectomy, were invited by the surgeon to view the mother's removed uterus.

Home sweet home!
