The SnowWorld thing is pretty cool. (No pun intended.)
It’s just nice that burn patients can think of something so cold that it makes them forget a little about their pain.

Hi Berci,

Your medblog is getting pretty famous in the Netherlands ;-) .

I also published the oofficial list for August. The dutch list even got mentioned in an offline medical journal.
