Lurking in the shadows

Last night was quite possibly one of the most interesting nights of my life!

I got my first chance to shadow in the ER of a local hospital!!!

Since emergency medicine is one of biggest areas of interest lately, you can only imagine how excited I was!!!!

I met a wonderful DO (another interest of mine as I just like their approach to medicine) who took me everywhere with her! And a HUGE thank you to all of the patients for allowing me to listen in!  And with that a HUGE thank you to everyone and everyone who allows students like myself to come into the room, you make a really big difference and play a great role in our education!!

Now I can't tell you much about what I saw, but I would like to say the two things I learned last night were as follows:

1) Getting old is rough

and

2) DO NOT DO drugs!!!!

seriously.....don't

Love love love
