Pancreas

Does anybody know, where can I get an already made presentation of pancreas and its functions…

I have to make one till tomorrow and I can’t find any good stuff about it:o

Yes, thank you. I have that site. But I was hoping for something more simple. Most of the words are to hard to even translate into my language, then I have to explain what they mean. So I was thinking of something less professional, with more simple expressions.

From The National Pancreas Foundation.

That’s more helpful. Thanks

I’m just listening to Weird Al’s song Pancreas:D
lol

Downlaod (or buy) the song ‘Pancreas’ by “Weird Al” Yankovic. Informative, simple and fun.

The following story involved a kidney, I suppose that you could get the same results borrowing a pancreas.

An unsuspecting tourist was drugged in his hotel room by a prostitute and woke up the next morning, supposedly, in a bathtub full of ice, minus a kidney.

A chilling tale, and a dubious one

It’s a scenario that has taken many forms. I first heard it myself many years ago from a friend who’d heard it from another friend, whose mother swore it had happened to a distant cousin.

In that version, the victim — we’ll call him “Bob” — was on a business trip alone somewhere in Europe, and went out to a bar one night to have a cocktail. Wouldn’t you know it, he woke up the next morning in an unfamiliar hotel room with severe pain in his lower back. He was taken to the emergency room, where doctors determined that, unbeknownst to himself, Bob had undergone major surgery the night before. One of his kidneys had been removed, cleanly and professionally.

A chilling tale, and a dubious one. With minor variations, the same story has been told thousands of times by thousands of different people in many different locales. And it’s always based, like the version I heard, and the version you heard, on third-, fourth-, or fifth-hand information.

Hey, that totally happened to my great uncle’s stepcousin one time!!!

I just chained my kidneys to my bedpost.

I can’t find a lock that will work with my spleen though. :astonished:

Just once? He’s got two kindeys , right?

My dad was born with only one humungous kindey.

I’ve also heard about that one…I’m afraid to travel alone now:(

I lock both my kidneys to my uni at night. Anyone who can get away from whilst taking my uni deserves to have the kidneys.

my friend’s pancreas doesn’t make insulin for him. he’s a diabetic! its great because sometimes he lets me eat a glucouse tab. it exactly like a smartie the size of a quarter, and many times thicker also!

What’s the taste like?

Yes, I got my presentation and got a 5 (in our school system, the grades are from 1 to 5…1 is the lowest)
