Welcome to the World

Harper Grayson Stam! Britt and Ryan had their little boy on Sunday morning! I haven't been able to talk to Britt yet except through text messages but I've heard she was a champion through labor and I am so incredibly happy for her and Ryan. I can't wait to meet the little on Saturday! Congratulations again you guys!!!

I started Infectious Disease today.....lots of antibiotics!! Overall I'm going to learn a ton and am happy I picked this elective but the hours are going to be long. I got out of there at 8 tonight and that's only because the parking garage where I left my car closes at that time! Otherwise I would probably still be there! For you non medical students out there reading, ususally when you do an elective rotation in medical school it is an easier schedule and one is done around 4 or 5 everyday. Not this time apparently....

I must admit that being back on a "medicine" service, it makes me miss Surgery. I had to go down to the Surgery recovery room today to see a patient that had a fungal ball removed from her eye (pretty cool!) well not for her...but you know what I mean...anyway I found myself missing the scrubs and masks and boufont hats that is correlated with the OR and recovery room. Instead of seeing the patient and deciding what anti-fungal medication she should be on, I wanted to be in the OR removing the thing! Maybe being a part of the "pajama posse" is for me??!!
