Surgical procedure done to restore major damage to the structure of the hand. Typically done when a persons' hand has been crushed beyond recognition. Tommy Don surgery is most likely done in emergency situations where the hand can no longer perform basic functions. i.e. open doors, wave, shake hands etc.
* Once a patient undergoes surgery, the hand is usually restored to 100% strength or more. Many times the patients' hand comes back stronger.

Get the Tommy Don Surgery mug.Any of several surgical procedures designed to produce substantial weight reduction in obese patients refractory to conventional measures.
Current options for weight loss surgery include the following:
1. Gastric bypass, in which the esophagus is essentially connected directly to the small intestine. This reduces caloric intake at the expense of considerable potential adverse effects.
2.Gastric banding, also referrred to as bariatric surgery, compresses the stomach by means of an external mechanical device. Appetite and capacity are reduced resulting in gradual weight loss.
3.Above-knee amputation produces weight reduction in a biphasic pattern. The immediate post-operative drop is supplemented by a long-term increase in caloric expenditure derived from hopping.

Get the suffermore mug.Nasty people, gross teachers who don't teach shit, a football team that is known for losing, and a soccer team that is actually good but nobody knows about it. A place where apparently crew is everything and people just can't seem to keep it off of their snapchat stories. Almost every student smokes weed because they think they are cool or drink because they think it's fun. Where students post cringe worthy trillers on their finstas that represents that everyone is literal trash in this school. Finally, homecoming is just full of sexually confused people that are looking for a hook up with or without the use of drugs and alcohol.
Person 1: Hey, I just came from Suffern High School's homecoming and made out with 20 girls.
Person 2: Dude, you almost broke the record of 40 girls. You could if you tried.
