I am so tired I can just fall asleep typing...
I just got off a 28 hour shift and no sleep. This is one of those posts to make you wonder if you really want to do this FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
No, seriously. I have gotten tons of great feedback from patients and their relatives. Living here sure has some perks. Not a lot of diagnostic facilities, but it sure gives your noggin' a jolt when you have to figure out a patient's Dx just on clinical.
I've been given enough bananas to keep a small chimp content for the rest of the week (patients go to public health facilities and don't have to pay, but they show their gratitude through small tokens, such as oranges, bananas, turnovers, sodas, water bottles, etc.). I really don't know if they're giving me food because they feel sorry for me (I must strike them as malnourished) or because it's their m.o. (someone fixes you up, you give them fruit).
Anyways, this is just to vent. I got home and no one was here to ask me about my day, so I took advantage of the newly opened forums, and here I am.
See y'all later!
