Well, sorry all my many readers 80) life had been so crazy but I almost get to take a breath. I graduate on Friday Feb 22!!!!! I'm so excited
I was able to stand in on a kidney transplant surgery on tuesday and it was amazing. I(and 2 students from other schools) was able to watch the kidney being taken out of the non related donor. After the kidney is out it is put in an ice bath and flushed out with cold saline to get all the extra blood out so there is less chance of rejection. We then walked with it next door and got to watch it being implanted into the recipient. We also got to look at the recipients heart during the surgery via transesophegal echocardiogram (a probe was stuck down his throat and ultrasound is used to view the different chambers and valves of the heart.
After that great day I had to work all night so I was understandably exhausted!! My feet still hurt but they will recover.
Thursday (valentines day) is our big final test and lab check off we also have out last paper due.
Well love ya'll I'm gonna have to head off to bed for the big day tom. say some little prayers for me.
