  • 7 - A different role

    Washing, dressing and grooming.
    Shopping for food and cooking.
    Cutting and preparing fruit.
    Giving each of the 23 tablets each day at the right time.
    Make home as comfy and warm as it could be.

    I reckon I could be a decent carer.  And it's amazing how you can spend the whole day just doing these things.

  • 6 - Or not?

    It's a little embarrassing to un-confirm my decisions with the foundation training directors, but having had an extensive discussion with my parents, they have strongly insisted I do not take time off from my work and I do not defer my foundation training.  Well, they have pretty much forbidden me to.

    So although the payroll department has already been efficient enough to ask if they could stop paying me, I'm afraid I'm back to work on the 28th Dec.

    Unsure of how I'll cope, with both family and work both on board, but we'll see.  Right now I have to buy a plane ticket for next week.

    The operation is done. 
    Just the start of a long and awfully painful journey.

    I have to stay strong, for mum and dad.  Thank you to my friends for all the support, prayers and well wishes.  Please keep them going, they really need them.

About Me

  • A 5th year medical student, wait no... first year junior doctor now, at the bottom rung of the NHS hierarchy - just trying to keep one's head above the water. I dance (ballet, jazz, tap, modern, lyrical jazz etc), I play the piano and violin, I jump (high and long), I hike, I dive, I play netball and squash. I like green, mocha frapp, photography, islands, maps, languages, Ludwig II King of Bavaria, generally being outdoors, omelettes, useless did-you-know facts and my bed.
