(Not so) Happy Halloween Skulls!
I have been considering getting some cosmetic surgery to correct the facial anomalies that still remain from the calamity. In anticipation of going to talk to some surgeons, I ordered the CT scans taken at Rockford Memorial Hospital following my brain surgeries. The CT scans came today, just in time for Halloween! I was under the impression that a metal plate had been inserted to protect the depressed fracture the front of my skull. But it looks from these that there is no plate, but rather a series of metal sutures that join the network of skull fragments. Interesting. Enjoy!

Wow! No wonder you acted so wierd!
Wow, this is the coolest! Do you set off the metal detectors in airports?
I don't know about "cool," but it is interesting. I DO set off the metal detector at the airport, but that's because of my artificial hip. I have been looking over the reports that came with the CT scans, and apparently there is a "large plate bridging a right temporal frontal craniotomy." But no plates show up on the scans that I can see. I hope that the scans and reports are enough info for a plastic surgeon; I'd hate to have my head zapped by more x-rays.
Interesting patterns, too. Looks like some of Ursa's blood cell artwork. BTW, Happy Anniversary, staple boy!!
Blood cell artwork? I'm almost afraid to ask. . . =)
