I started clinic on Tuesday thinking that my week was going to
be very slow and also anticipating a slow schedule next week due to
Thanksgiving. However, it was actually the opposite!
I finally got to see my first pediatric patient! It was exciting
and very challenging to take a history from the mother and then do
a physical exam on the tiny human patient! I will have to say that
I was very blessed and lucky with my patient because he loved
everything about the appointment and was so entertaining!
I've always wanted to go into women's health and pediatric
health. This tri and last tri, I had so many patients with women's
"problems;" it was difficult but still very rewarding. And now that
I had my first pediatric patient, it definitely cemented my
decision to do women's and pediatric health! I only hope we can get
more pediatric patients in our clinic because it really gave me
such a positive and very necessary experience.

for our other best friend to change into wedding
dresses!
My weekend was amazing as usual. I got to spend time with my two
best friends as we shopped for Maria's wedding dress! After
spending an entire day dress shopping, we went to support a very
good friend as he had to say goodbye to his mother for the last
time after losing her battle to breast cancer. Having two funerals
in two weekends is definitely not expected, but celebrating life
and being thankful for those people in our lives is just
beautiful!
My best friends and I went back to my house and I hosted a
"girls night." We cooked together, laughed a lot, and celebrated
each other and life! It was a great reminder of all the things I am
thankful for, which is family and friends! What a great segue into
this Thanksgiving Week!
Waiting for Maria to come and show us her first
dress!
Stay tuned for next week's blog that will consist of my thankful
list and food pictures! :)
Have a happy thanksgiving and enjoy each other...enjoy life!
