    does anybody else feel alittle freaked out by the word "cadaver" like in terms of if u need a new liver or sum other organ..like if u heard "it will be coming from a cadaver" wouldnt that just make u cringe? sum foreign object or material or whatever in ur body and its coming from a corpse like why not just say "coming from a donor" isnt it more gentle on the mind? wierd thing is that i wouldnt mind working on a "cadaver" if i was taking an anatomy class...its just the thought of that part of it inside u...like u already kno its most likely from a dead body....do u really need to hear it? idk...does this affect anyone else?

    The cadaver was once a human being but I think people use the term donor.
