Some other docs have mentioned it too, but I love how you put this together...it really captures the excitement, stress, fear, etc.<BR/><BR/>***How vividly do you remember your 1st day? How scared were you?<BR/><BR/>I guess fighter pilots can crash and burn, other jobs can bring injury but doctors..well you can kill someone...even through omission. <BR/><BR/>I was reading a med student blog last year and she said that between May and July the monkeys run the asylum and she questioned what makes the med student so much more knowledgeable from Friday's graduation to Monday being a doctor who is responsible for patients? That's the gist of it anyway.<BR/><BR/>So back then...I wasn't sure if I was going to have to go into a teaching hospital for a reconstructive surgery that had been recommended...and so I decided that perhaps winter/spring months would be best and definitely not summer. :)<BR/><BR/>Now I have to consider that all over again...but at least I have another option and I am most grateful for that. :)SeaSprayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07906503090688697222noreply@blogger.com
