"How To" Guide on Amputations
If you're ever in the need to make an amputation, I highly recommend this chart. It's a very useful guide, and if you don't have the equipment for an amputation, like an Amputation Saw, Gigli Saw, Amputation Knife and Tenotomy Knife, you can use "any saw or a domestic Knife."
"You will need to amputate a patient’s leg about five times more often than his arm. Once you have cut off a limb there is no going back, so try to retain as much function as you can. The patient is unlikely to get an arm prosthesis, and it would be of little use even if he could get one. So aim instead for the longest possible stump of an arm. Every centimetre is useful, so is an elbow which he can use as a hook, and so is any kind of a wrist."

Thank GOD I'm not going to med school. Real Estate vocabulary is difficult enough without it sounding terrifying like DISARTICULATION.
Even spell-check don't like it. Now that's bad.
