"The practice of medicine is an art, not a trade; a calling, not a business; a calling in which your heart will be exercised equally with your head. Often the best part of your work will have nothing to do with potions and powders, but with the exercise of an influence of the strong upon the weak, of the righteous upon the wicked, of the wise upon the foolish.” - Sir William Osler

Checking in
I have nothing interesting to post - I am merely proving that I'm still here. Our next test is on Monday, so I will soon return to my cave and hunker down again, defying the oncoming storm with inumerable details. There's a hell of a lot of stuff to know this time, and while the last exam left me impressed at how much stuff I had in my head, this one makes me feel like I don't know anything yet. It's not that I don't get it - there's just so much to do, so much to learn. This time around, for pathology alone, we're covering GI path (gastric ulcers, liver cancer, pancreas, etc), male and female reproductive path, and endocrine path. I should get back to it.
