So tomorrow is my final day here at Dr. Todd smith’s office.  I really enjoyed my time here.  Everyone is alot of fun!  I’m currently 1/4th thru my ”USMLE Step 2 Secrets” book and already I feel like I am refreshing my memory on alot of topics I had forgotten about.  Got to see a case of acute cholecystitis (gall bladder stuff) and some joint injections today.   Dr. todd ordered some fish for his saltwater aquarium and they arrived dead as a doornail.   Well, all except the starfish survived hehe  All in all, today is flying by though!  Pretty schhhweeet! 

As you can see below this post, the lovely lady posted.  She is so sweet.  Well her sweetness has gotten her a cavity and now she needs a root canal.  Lemme tell ya, I avoid the dentist at all cost cause I have had some nasty experiences with having some of my permanent teeth pulled when I had braces.  Getting my wisdom teeth cut out wasn’t fun either!  In fact, I remember having to get new stitches because I sliced my wound open by eating a poptart 2 days after the surgery!  So when your doctor says to eat soft foods….listen to him and EAT SOFT FOODS!  

In other news, I became a Studentdoctor.net mentor today so I’ll be helping people out with medical school stuff.  I’m the PBL and computer science to medicine mentor.  Cool beans eh?

Anyway, gotta jet.  Patients are trickling in now!

Hi All!!!  No, this is not Richie’s mother, it’s actually the future Mrs. Truxillo!  This is my first post so I hope you all enjoy!

I just wanted to let ALL of Richie’s Friends and Fans know what a wonderful man he is and just how much he takes care of me!  I have had a toothache for a few days now, and Richie finally convinced me to go to the dentist.  Sure enough, I was told that I have to have a root canal!!!!!  So being the amazing fiancé he is, he started looking for oral surgeons in HIS area so he could take the day off of his rotation and take care of me!  When I mentioned to him that my favorite dentist (and good friend) moved from my area to Roanoke a year ago, he immediately located her office online and said that if I can get an appointment, he would drive me the 100 miles it takes to get to Roanoke from Bluefield,  just so I can feel better about my root canal!  He’s amazing!  I love this man!
