T to the Seventh Day Eight

 18 May 2021

Welcome to day eight of Teige and Tahg Take on Thrilling Traumatic Thoracic Treatments! Today we started at 9:00 in Diane’s office for some physical therapy practice. We met with the usual patients along with a couple new ones. The man who had crashed his snowmobile was back for more treatment. We helped Diane by monitoring different exercises that the patients performed throughout the day. Tahg took a test on the components of the knee while I was getting my second COVID vaccination. I avoided the test for a couple days as now I have to take it next Tuesday. I absolutely love working at Ragged Mountain Physical Therapy, Tahg and I are always laughing and, of course, working hard.

See you tomorrow!

T to the Seventh Day Two

  11 May 2021 Hello and welcome to day two of Teige and Tahg Take on Thrilling Traumatic Thoracic Treatments! This morning was quite the early one as Tahg, and I met Diane Fowler at 8:00 at Ragged Mountain Physical Therapy. We observed as Diane went through her day meeting with quite a few patients. One of the patient’s stories I would like to share with you, the young man who came in had been in a snowmobiling accident in the winter. He had crashed into the shoreline and broken many different bones and structures in the body. However, the most intriguing part of his injury was an open book pelvic fracture because of how the fracture was repaired. It was a two-incision process, with one being on the side of the stomach where his organs were pulled to the side. The other was at the bottom of the stomach, where the pelvic bone was fixed. I’m excited to get back to watching surgeries tomorrow! See you tomorrow, Teige Wright

T to the Seventh Day Three

  12 May 2021 Welcome to day three of Teige and Tahg Take on Thrilling Traumatic Thoracic Treatments! Today we started at 8:30, and we were back home watching surgeries. We decided on a hip replacement to get the ball rolling. We were inspired by Tahg’s hip surgery and a patient in Diane’s office to watch this specific type of surgery. After watching that, we moved to a coronary bypass, and then we finished with a “day in the life” video of a cardiothoracic surgeon. See you tomorrow! Teige Wright

T to the Seventh Day Seven

  17 May 2021 Welcome to day seven of Teige and Tahg Take on Thrilling Traumatic Thoracic Treatments! Today Tahg arrived at my house at 8:30 for some surgery watching! We started off the day with a mitral valve replacement surgery similar to the aortic valve replacements we have been watching but just in a different area of the heart. We then moved on to a similar surgery, a tricuspid valve replacement. I understand what is happening more and more the more often we watch these valve replacements. I feel like I could do one myself. Maybe not.  See you tomorrow! Teige Wright
