The Spinal Column and Its Workings
This drawing is one of those from the binder Margie was given at Valley Medical Center. She used it to learn about the spinal column and how it works. Shown are the spinal nerves and the major areas of the body they control. (Says Margie, “I have no idea what the cauda equina is, and I'm not sure I want to know. It sounds
too much like a something one would find on a horse.”)
