I posted this a long time ago but when I was in college a very talented young
woman ahead of my class took out a large bowl only to have it snap and split
and sever the tendons and arteries in her arms. She was rushed to the
hospital from Chouinard by the then early 911 folks but her ability to
function as the potter she was becoming was forever changed.
