>мебели has to be brief since I am going to sleep soon but i just started my ICU/CCU rotation at the Veterans Hospital.  Learning alot, got some training on ventilator management today.  My first month of internal medicine wards went well.  I am nervous about my first night of call in the ICU though as I hear your pager goes off non-stop (on the wards you at least slept a couple hours at night).  The main challenge of internship year is to keep from getting sick hehe.

Anyway I am holdig up well, so far so good.  Still alot to learn and plenty to read!  Best wishes to you all

   Hrm.. I’m afraid my first comment didn’t post! Maybe? or maybe you have to approve it?

   Anywho, wanted to let you know (in case the first message didn’t post) that….

   I’ve been accepted to LMU-DCOM c/o 2013! I’m SO excited.

   And ready to pick your brain.

   Sorry for a double post… I may be losing my mind.
