Dream 31: Weird Operations
I was in a hospital and was being shown revolutionary techniques which reduced bruising and swelling and vastly aided recovery after operations. A woman came out, she said she’d had a lump on her spine. She had a normal head but then she was just a spinal column. The vertebrae only, covered in skin as normal but there was no other body there at all (no organs either) and the spine just went down to her pelvic bones. She did have arms and on the top around the biceps and triceps were a series of tubes. They were made from her own skin and they wound out and back into her arm in a tangled confusion like very large fat tubular spaghetti. The tubes were about two or three centimetres in diameter and there was series of switches and taps which regulated them. It seemed to filter the blood and other body fluid so eliminating the swelling and bruising. It was fascinating, very graphic and real, but when I woke up I also realised it was a bit weird.....
