Some warm up character designs before my next large piece ))
Please like, reblog and check the rest of my art out, I primarily draw original content so it’s very hard for my art to find an audience
I’m like:
Kyle MacLachlan in Capone
Announcement!
So I haven’t posted on here in ages though I do occasionally page through others posts. Anyway - just wanted to let you all know I’ve accepted a fellowship position!
I can’t say what in because- well it’s a small world and there aren’t too many Polish FMG docs but I wanted to tell you. I’m still getting over the shock of getting a residency and specializing is more than I could have ever hoped for!
Thank you all for being there for me through med school, residency, and now fellowship. It’s been quite the journey!
These facebook ads know me too well….
Because you can take the doctor out of the hospital but you can’t take the Netters out of the doctor.
Studying on the sofa with this cutie is impossible.
8 years ago to the day that I interviewed and was accepted into medical school. 8 years!!!
So much is different and yet it’s the same. I’m not the person I was then- I had no idea what I was getting myself in to haha I suppose I still don’t.
I wish I could tell myself no to worry so much- that in the end everything ends up okay.
Time is a crazy thing!!!
Guys!!! It’s here!!!!!
Drove 10+ hours to hear all about this and I feel like a new Harry Potter book came out!
Hands down the best conference I’ve ever been at. To be in the room debating the current standards with the people who wrote them was fantastic!!!
Had a patient on service for 36 days. For three weeks he had been 90% fiO2 on vapotherm 35 LPM. THREE WEEKS. We tried everything short of intubating him to fix his lungs. Family didn’t want to intubate or CPR if it came to it. They didn’t want hospice either and except for being encephalopathic and on way too much oxygen and being unable to get out of bed he looked okay.
The family kept telling us that what when G-d wants him, he’ll take him.
We decided a week ago to try and get him to a long term acute rehab hospital. Family couldn’t decide. Keep in mind there was literally nothing more we could do and despite crazy high oxygen nothing had changed in weeks. Today we spent 45 minutes on the phone with the family and got them to agree to the transfer.
An hour later the patient became brady and died. The whole ICU was shocked.
I’m convinced G-d has a sick sense of humor.
My day today.
It may seem like Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas and the rest of the holiday season are ages away, but these next few weeks are sure to go by quick. You don’t want to be caught off guard because school and work kept you busy up until the last minute. Take the opportunity to start planning now; that way, you’ll have nothing to worry about when the big days actually come.
• Make your gift list. Who do you want to get presents? What’s your budget? Are they group gifts? This is the time to figure all this out so you can start purchasing items as you see them. There’s no worse feeling than not having something to give to someone that you’d planned on getting a gift. Avoid that embarrassment by working on your list now and crossing it off, slowly but surely.
• Figure out your schedule. Will you need days off? What about half days? Should you be scheduling appointments? The holidays are a time where you generally have some time away from work and school, but you may have to take that time off. They’re also an excellent opportunity to schedule doctor and dentist appointments - taking these days off now means people are less likely to have already done so.
• Clean out your closet. What have you accumulated in the past year that you really aren’t using? This is the time to clean out your closet and donate things you don’t need. That way, you’ve got space for the new goodies you’re sure to acquire, but you also make your old belongings available to people who may see them as the best gift they could give. Talk about win-win!
