Die Violinistin Dagmar Turner wurde neulich am King’s College Hospital in London an ihrem Gehirn operiert, um einen gutartigen Tumor zu entfernen. Am Ende der OP spielte sie dazu auf ihrer Violine. Schon dolle beeindruckend.
The medical team asked Dagmar Turner, 53, to play the violin to ensure parts of the brain which control delicate hand movements and coordination were not damaged during the millimetre-precise surgery.
Ms Turner, a former management consultant from the Isle of Wight, was diagnosed in 2013 with a brain tumour after suffering a seizure during a symphony.
The committed violinist, who plays in Isle of Wight Symphony Orchestra, was worried the surgery would mean she woudl lose the ability to play.
Her tumour was located in the right frontal lobe of her brain, close to an area that controls the fine movement of her left hand.
