CREATE A STORY
This is a fun—and challenging—way to reinforce the meaning of medical words and the word elements is to create a story using the words and word elements from chapter 17-20. The medical words and word elements are to be substituted for words in a appropriate story that you make. Submit your story in the text box below. I will not open file attachments. Once posted you will be able to see others stories and will be able to read and comment/ like others if you choose.
Original post must have:
-continuity
-a title (5pts)
-use a minimum of 10 different word elements. If terms are repeated in the story, they only count once towards the ten (10) total. (10 pts each).
-ONLY terms on the list below count towards the ten (10) total. Terms in the example are NOT included.
Here is an example story:
The Great Bulge
“Pierre was a (glyc/o) sweet little old man. He suffered from (inguin/o hernia) tissue protruding through wall of muscle in the groin . Pierre suffered great (-algia ) pain. He needs to have it (plasty) surgical repair before the hernia (-megaly) enlarged. Pierre is ready for surgery and will be under anesthesia by a (an-) absence (esthesia-) sensation (ologist) specialist in the study of. The surgeon will make (-tomy) incision into the groin area to ( -rrhaphy) surgical suturing the hernia. The Surgeon can do this repair (lapar/) abdominal wall (-oscopic) examination with a scope.
