What a great day! First off let me clarify that I barely passed my "written test" for CPR, I for sure passed the floor and dummy exercises, so if I was put in the position to save your life I would do it! Today was learning more about patient care, transporting, charts, procedures, ect....I got to watch brain surgery, very interesting as well as some amputations of diabetic patients, very sad! Tomorrow there will be an open heart surgery case in which I get to shave the patients chest, a little nervous, but it cant be that hard!

I love reading about what you've been up to. So exciting-makes my little life seem so boring.

Holy crap! You seriously get to watch that stuff. I had no idea. I am shocked. You are a freaking doctor - shaving patients and everything. That is serious stuff. Good luck!

Wow, I can't believe you get to watch live surgeries! That is crazy!! I can watch some surgeries on t.v., though I have to turn away anytime they are cutting skin or inserting a needle. That just grosses me out!!
