the itch and the brain

There is a great article in The New Yorker about a woman who had an itch and scratched it so much that she went through to her brain (http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/06/30/080630fa_fact_gawande).
There is also information about treatment, phantom limbs and sight. Interesting stuff, especially regarding the eyesight and the brains memory.
