I finally caught up! My bookmarks thingy is currently empty! I think I probably didn’t write the best notes but I it feels good to be all caught up :)
Most importantly, I had my quarterly CT and followup appointment this past week. Yay anxiety. But things are still looking good and there are no signs that the cancer is coming back, so WOOOOO!!!! It’s ridiculous the things that make me emotional about this. I almost started crying one day thinking that this CT scan would be the first where I’d have an IV put in for the contrast vs them using my port because my port is out. These steps are so huge. And my oncologist has changed my monitoring from CT’s every 3 months to every 4. FEELS.
Another rotation down. 4 down, 23 to go. Technically, 21 to go if we don’t count my 2 vacation blocks. I was just thinking today how amazing it will be to be done with work at the end of the day instead of having to study all the time. Free time sounds amazing.
I start my spay/neuter rotation tomorrow. I have very little surgical experience (a handful of knots on my Nicaragua trip, half of a neuter during my surgery lab. It’s not something I’ve sought out in my free time) so I’m anxious. But I’ve heard really good things about this rotation and how people come out of it feeling a lot more comfortable, even with as little experience as I have now. First day is orientation but surgery and running anesthesia starts on Tuesday. Eek! There’s lots of hand-holding so it should go OK.
Ooh, dinner is ready. There’s probably more to write but food is pretty darn important :)
