a hunter near by shot Alexis St. Martin, and he was saved by a nearby Doctor, William Beaumont he was cut open and he survuved with all his insides coming out(impressive or wat?)
Alexis St. Martin was born in 1794.
Alexis St. Martin died in 1880.
In my textbook it says that Alexis st Martin was his patient, St martin had been shot but the wound never healed and a hole was left. so Beaumont used this to disscover things about the digestive system.
Acid in Alexis St. Martin's stomach
Alexis St. Martin was born on March 19, 1805, and he died on June 2, 1880. This means he was 75 years old at the time of his death. St. Martin is well-known for his unique medical case involving a gunshot wound that allowed Dr. William Beaumont to study digestion.
Because if the did not, then the "Medical men" would dig him up from his grave and autopsy and maybe even send his stomach to the Army Medical base in Africa. His family wait till Alexis's body started to decompose before putting it in- so this wouldn't happen.
This website (http://www.james.com/beaumont/dr_life.htm) mentions Beaumont making Alexis fasting saying that Beaumont then removed gastric juice from Alexis so I can only presume that Beaumont made Alexis fast so that there where no chemicals in the gastric juice for his experiments. Hope that helps.
