Not a lightsaber but…
Recently, Aunt Margi entrusted me with Grandpa Buck’s stethoscope. His is the one on the left. I’m not sure if it’s the same scope they gave him when he was at Med school in St. Louis. If so, he would have received it it in 1941, taken it to China in WWII, and then brought it back to CA where he settled with grandma after the war. It’s a solemn, wonderful feeling to place his scope next to my own.

I see pride in that photo.

Is the scope you’re using as an icon–the one with a blue background–also yours? It looks similar.

Nope that scope is part of some artwork that’s been floating around the interent forever; you’ll run into it on medical blogs, pharmaceutical commercials, etc. it’s pretty, huh?

I just Google-imaged it, and there it was in the first row.
