A friend invited me to an event this coming Saturday which I know would be "good for me." My reply was, "No, thanks. Right now if somebody offered me a planet all to myself, I would take it in a heartbeat." I have enough stuff on my calendar to keep me from being a complete hermit, and that's probably a good thing.
Yesterday I participated in another simulated patient (SP) encounter with medical students at KSCOM. I played the role of a concerned companion to the person seeing the doctor about fainting, dizzy spells and shortness of breath. We worked with five sets of doctors-to-be, all different, dedicated and great fun. The SP opportunities are giving me an appreciation for how much doctors need to know and consider when treating folks.
I am needing a lot of sleep these days, trying to get my energy back. I am grateful for springtime.
