Take a look at the lighted, right center of this photo (click on image to zoom) and you will see a large, baseball-sized growth atop this patient's head. It's a benign, tumor-like growth this elderly gentleman has had since he can remember, and one that Dr. Stephen Parker is about to remove.
It took Parker and PA Senthil Radhakrishnan several hours to do it, but it should give the patient many more years of life where he will look in the mirror or see his image in a passing windowpane and know that he is, indeed, much like everyone else.
