Day three Uganda comes to an end
This day felt like we were really accomplishing what we came here for!! Very thorough teaching sessions and identified several patients for procedures starting tomorrow. So less time for didactic learning and more for hands on which is what everyone wants anyway. We can always leave the didactic materials behind for them.
The food has been amazing ( Read more... ) -
Day three Ugandan Heart Project
We're gearing up for a busier day today. Teaching sessions and identifying an OR to do a potential case on Wednesday. Today it will be Cath lab basics with the Ugandan staff. Then a mock case. Yesterday was as expected, heart wrenching especially our tour of the Pediatric unit. Yes, dying children everywhere piled 2 to a crib in a sweaty open ward ( Read more... ) -
Uganda mission: Cath Lab
Well getting here was smooth if you don't count my cancelled flight from DC. No worries, got on an earlier flight and all was well. Better in fact since I now had time for a pleasant stopover at Heathrow. It was a cramped flight but I gotta say British Airways does feed you well. I had brekkie at Gordon Ramsey's which was fine but nothing ro write ( Read more... ) -

So, I decided to post more to LJ and now I can't seem to do that from my computer via the web and all of these client programs seem buggy. Anyone else having such a problem? I can update on my phone but this is somewhat tedious!

Feeling bloggy
I guess it's time get off my non-bloggy pot and post something. I have fallen victim to the 10 word or less read that is a Facebook update. Totally dissatisfying. So I am going to make an earnest effort to do more entries here even if no one is reading. Doing so gives me an opportunity to work out things in my head and usually makes me feel better ( Read more... ) -
I hate being angry
Is that... Ironic? I made a resolution today. But let's back up some... I worked a little overtime today, yeah, it's only Monday and I'm already doing overtime. But self imposed, I do admit. And short, just four hours. Seems like a good time to take advantage of such things with aspirations of summer travel and frolic. I like these short work spits ( Read more... ) -
Knock, knock...who's there
I'm not sure anyone reads this anymore...I mean, I'm guilty of not keeping up, but then again, It now only takes a few minutes to read now compared to the hours I could waste reading my friends here in the near past. I do miss doing this. Although the last time I did this, I composed this wonderful entry and got to the submit button and boom. ( Read more... )
