This past week came and went so quickly - just a quick post of some of the great things that happened this week.
I got to see my friend and Step 1 study buddy, Amanda, for an awesome dinner in Brooklyn. She too has moved every month since the summer for med school electives and eagerly awaits the results of the residency match. The med school process is so exhausting and chaotic that sometimes its hard to see the growth and the hopes and the potential in ourselves and in those around us...but its been over a year since I've seen Amanda and hearing about her plans and what she has accomplished was so exciting and reinvigorating. Less than one month until we find out where we match, and only two months left before we're ready to graduate!! The pic of us is from our trip to Kenya after our 1st year of med school - we're standing on the air strip in Masai Mara after a few days on safari. It's amazing how time flies.
David and I got to meet Miss Avery Lyn, Tim and Jena's precious little girl who was born on Superbowl Sunday. It was so cool to see Tim and Jena in their new role as parents! She's the happy baby in the teal outfit in the pics.
I finished two chemo caps this week! Last year I decided that I would learn how to knit hats for donation to patients undergoing chemotherapy and experiencing the unfortunate side effect of hair loss. I'm really enjoying knitting and now I think I'll try a more advanced pattern.
Finally, my friend Christy came over today with her 9 month old son, Jaxson, who entertained us for hours wiggling all over the place and showing off his new teeth.
Although I miss being in the OR, I'm so happy to be on a more laid back rotation so that I can enjoy some time away from work catching up with all these friends who I've been missing!!!
