I wanted to take a moment to say a sincere thank you for sharing your loved one with us. I know it sounds odd today, but I felt like I really connected with the body our group shared-- I loved learning about his past history through things we could see in the present, like pacemakers and knee replacements. I learned so much through working with the donated bodies, and I am so grateful that your loved ones were generous enough to donate so my classmates and I could all learn so much. Dear families and friends of the donors, While leaving our world, your loved ones have given us medical students the greatest gift anyone can ever give: the opportunity to learn from their bodies. Our body is our most valuable possession. Throughout life, we take great care of our body. Material possessions may come and go, but no one can take our body from us. For us medical students, having the opportunity to glimpse inside a human body is a very humbling experience. We have the once-in-a- lifetime chance to examine something which we all possess, but which we cannot all see. On the first day of anatomy lab, our instructors told us to take a moment and reflect on our donors. They told us to always remember that the individual had dreams and aspirations, thoughts and emotions, just like all of us. I always kept this perspective in my mind when I examined my body. If only I had a chance to meet my donor—I would love to hear what he had to share about his life experiences. I would tell him that I am eternally grateful for the knowledge he has given me about the human body. I would let him know that because of his ultimate gift, I will be able to help countless patients in the future. I would convey to him that he is my ultimate medical teacher, the one who can teach me more than any professor or textbook can teach me. I consider it my great fortune to have received such a gift. And I wholeheartedly thank the donor, who even at the last moments of his life, did not think about himself, but thought about what more he can do to the world as he departs. Even after his passing, he continued to enrich the lives of others. I will never forget the knowledge that I have gained from my donor. The human body is the most amazing creation in the universe, and to be able to study it is a great honor. To the families and friends of the donors, I am truly sorry for your loss. You were very fortunate to have had such amazing people in your lives. And while the donors have departed our material world, they will continue to live in our hearts, and they will always be in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for considering us worthy enough to entrust us with the bodies of your loved ones. We are eternally grateful. Being able to learn about the human body by investigating a literal human body has been a privilege. Thank you families for helping us to learn anatomy! I very much appreciated your loved one, and the gift you gave was invaluable to my education and life. I was constantly reminded of your kindness and generosity every day in anatomy, and I will keep that with me as I continue my career! I deeply appreciate the gift that your loved one has given. Your loved one has given me an amazing experience- educationally and personally. Thank you I would like to take a moment to thank the family members and loved ones of the donors for their gracious donations for our anatomy instructional lab. To us, these donors represented more than just a vessel to explore the human anatomy in great detail, it was, for many of us, one of the first patients we will see and perhaps one of the most memorable as well. In these weeks, we learned about the intricacies of the human body as well as how complex and unique every person is. Thank you for your invaluable gifts and know that these donors have played an important role in developing intuitive, sympathetic, and humane future physicians. Dear Donor Family, My grandmother recently passed away and she had always been very adamant about wanting to donate her body to science. She was a teacher in life and an incredibly sweet, courageous person. I think that most people that choose to donate their bodies are probably as generous and selfless as she was and I am honored to have been the recipient of that last beneficent act. They tell us at the beginning of anatomy that our bodies are our first patients and so we treat them. In anatomy we learn some of the most enduring lessons of our medical careers. That first class is a formative, symbolic time for a med student and we are so incredibly grateful to the folks who make our first foray into medicine possible. I cannot thank you or tell you what an honor it has been for me and the rest of my lab group. We are deeply grateful. Sincerely, Matt S. Smith Anatomy lab was one of the most important experiences of my life and I will be forever thankful for her gift. We are truly grateful for the generosity of your family and your loved one. Being able to learn in the anatomy lab was a unique and certainly invaluable experience and would not have been possible without your anatomic gift. Thank you! I cannot begin to express my thanks and appreciation for the generous gift your loved one provided our medical school class. I will never forget the opportunity we were given to learn human anatomy and am certain I will continue to use the knowledge I have gained throughout my career. Please know how grateful I am and that the memory of your loved one will be carried on by me as well. To the donor family -- I would like to express my greatest thanks and appreciation to you for the donation that you made. I can only imagine how difficult it was for you to make such a decision, but I do want you to know that it was not taken for granted. In fact, it was so essential to our education and significant in our pursuit towards becoming future physicians. What you provided for us will allow us to save so many more lives in the future. Thank you, again. May God bless you all, Greg I would like to acknowledge the donors, their families, and their loved ones for their contribution to our medical education. While enlightening for us as students, this is truly a gift to society as our training will impact the patients that we endeavor to care for. Additionally, I would like the families to know that all of the remains were respected and the donors were honored. I could not be more grateful for all of those who have allowed us to explore the marvels of the human body. They deserve to be very proud of this gift. I would like to thank the donor and their family for the chance to learn from the donor's body. I would like to express my extreme and sincere gratitude to the family of the woman who donated her body to our medical education. Having the opportunity to learn from an actual human body was an uncomparable learning experience that enhanced my understanding of anatomy exponentially. I genuinely feel as though I would not have been able to learn anatomy as thoroughly as I have with as much comprehension as I have had it not been for the opportunity to work with a real human body. This experience has undoubtedly impacted the physician that I will become, and I just want you to know how appreciated your family's gift was to us as medical students. Please decide whether this is appropriate for family members to read, I'm speaking from the gut and I'm not sure how inflammatory my comments may seem. Dear all, I am one of the medical students who had the honor to benefit from your relative/friends selfless donation of her body. I want to thank you over and over for the learning opportunity she gave me. To give away something so precious as her body is something I couldn't admire more and be more humbled by. From her body, I learned more about the immense moral duties of medicine that drew me to medical school. Through her body, I began my long-held quest to become a healer. Through understanding her body, I will better understand my future patients, and that inspired me every day to do unto her as I would do unto my patients. Because of her, I feel more confident in my abilities to treat and respect those I will care for. But at the same time, I faced through our time together the moral flaws that threaten medicine today. On our first day, my classmates and I were told to treat our donors with care and respect, and then given lengthy lab instructions that demanded we work quickly. After a lengthy and solemn moment of silence for the donors, our group detached ourselves to the task at hand, and we forced ourselves to dissect multitudes of vessels and nerves with less regard for what lay in between. Our group was careful and respectful as we were asked (we still sleep at night) but I will tell you this learning process was sometimes frightening. After anatomy, I look with more mature eyes to the time I will later spend in hospital. For the first time, I asked myself whether I would let a rigorous early-morning to late-night schedule to treat a hospital population get the better of my moral duty to my individual patients? I realized that being a physician would mean I would lead a dizzying dance, or tiptoe a terrifying tight rope each day of my professional life, but with another's life hanging in the balance and not mine. But because of her, I remain as hopeful and inspired as I was when I first walked into that lab. I know now, how strong my moral fiber really is. I know, from her, how much I have to give and how much more I must grow to be the best physician I can. I am, because of her selfless donation, a stronger and wiser student, which will make me a stronger and wiser and more competent physician in a few years. Such difficult and inspiring lessons I couldn't have learned from anybody except her, and I couldn't be more grateful for her being the most giving and supportive teacher I will ever have. Sincerely, A Dear family, Thank you so much for the gift of your loved one. Please understand how important this has been for my education and for the other four members of my anatomy group. We appreciate and value this tremendous gift. I know that I will be a better physician and have a much better understanding of the human body because of her gift to us. Thank you and all the best, Jessica Having just finished our anatomy course, I feel immensely grateful to the individuals who donated their bodies to be dissected, and to their families. It's a tremendously intimate gift - please know that it is not one we took lightly. The last ten weeks have been an invaluable opportunity, one that will inform our careers in medicine and that we will absolutely never forget. Thank you for your part in that. My anatomy education was informative and engaging because of my donor's gift. He taught me everything I now know about the human body, and I will have the opportunity to really help people in the future with the knowledge that I gained from him. If it wasn't for his singular final gift, my understanding of the human body wouldn't be as comprehensive. His gift also gave me added motivation. I thought of him as my first patient and worked extremely hard to learn as much as possible from him. Putting in extra hours in the anatomy lab was the least that I could contribute. His amazing donation really has made my medical school experience complete. I greatly appreciated the opportunity to begin my medical education with your friend or family member. Even in death, she was a teacher and a source of camaraderie. She honorably gave her body to science, and I hope to live up to her investment with my medical career. I promise to honor her donation with my service. I wanted to express my deepest thanks. You and your loved one made a priceless gift to science. I will use the knowledge I have gained for the entirety of my medical career. I cannot express how much anatomy lab meant to myself and my classmates who are now my close friends. Whoever our donor was to the person reading this (your father, husband, neighbor, or friend) I can only hope that he was as generous in life as he was in death. Thank you. I wanted to take a moment to express my great appreciation and gratitude for the gift given by the individuals who elected to donate their bodies in support of our medical education. Through their donations, these individuals made an immeasurable and truly irreplaceable contribution to our learning. I cannot imagine learning anatomy any other way, I am truly appreciative to have had the opportunity to complete this part of my training with the help of these donations. Myself and my classmates did our best to master the material, and we will carry this knowledge with us in the future as we strive to better the health and well-being of our communities as practicing physicians. Thank you so much for helping us in our journey! To Whom it May Concern, I would like to sincerely extend my gratitude for your loved one and your family for this generous donation. The dissection was an integral part of my anatomy learning experience and helped me apply what I learned in the classroom to a more real situation. I am certain that your generosity will help me become the physician that I want to be. I would also like to add that the anatomy lab instructors at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and my fellow classmates have ensured that we have treated our donors with the utmost care and respect. Again, I sincerely appreciate your generosity. Thank you very much! Sincerely, Sai Sachin Divakaruni MS I I would like to thank our donors and their family and friends for the most generous gift one could ever receive. Our gift was our first patient, our teacher, and a friend whom we never had a chance to grab a coffee with. He was a member of our team in our pursuit to learn about the human body. He taught us about the beauty of the human body that can not be simply demonstrated in our books. The knowledge and experiences that we have gained in the past 10 weeks will remain with us during the rest of our journey. He will be missed. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the donor, and his family and friends. Their anatomic gift made a vast difference in learning and will almost certainly save lives in the future. Again, thank you so so much and it is impossible to explain in words how much of a positive impact this gift made Thank you for your donation and the learning opportunity it provided me. I know that I have been able to learn and experience things in a way that will stick with me throughout my medical career and that I would not have otherwise been able to truly understand. I appreciate your gift for the opportunity to learn about the human body in a real and tangible way, and I know the lessons I have been taught will help me to provide better care for my future patients. Thank you again for your generosity, it was the best and most lasting way for me to learn anatomy and something I truly appreciate. I'm having a difficult time finding the correct words to express the gratitude I feel. Your loved one gave us this quiet and invaluable gift that marks the start of our medical careers. But how can we repay this generosity? How can we thank the deceased for this most selfless donation? I hope that in expressing my gratitude to you, you may find some peace in the death of your loved one. And I hope that in helping you find that peace, I will have expressed the smallest of "thank you"s to a person who deserves so many more. Hello, My name is Michael Foster and I would like to express my thanks and gratitude towards your family member who generously donated their body to medicine. Because of their selfless donation, over the past ten weeks I have gained an immense amount of knowledge that will not only benefit myself as a future practitioner, but will allow me to provide better care for my future patients. Ultimately, your family member's benevolent decision to contribute their body to medical studies will allow many individuals to receive quality care in the future that will restore their health, and in some cases, save their lives. The donors have made the ultimate gift of generosity. Their final act was one that will benefit so many people. Their selfless contribution will not only help students become well trained physicians, but may also help advance the field of science and medicine. We are so grateful for their gift. I would like to extend my thanks to your family for the gift that you have given. Your loved one’s donation has allowed us to have an unparalleled experience. He gave himself, his body, so that we could learn. He was selfless, courageous and caring. My experience has taught me to always remember that as a physician one is treating the whole person, not just a disease. I will remember him and all that he has taught me throughout my medical education. Thank you for everything! Sincerely, Laura Segars I wish to express my most sincere gratitude to the family of our donor. I must be honest, I did not know what to expect from my time in lab, but I would not have learned a single thing if it weren't for him. He
