Well the past few days have been rough. I hope that no one I know ever has to go through the joy of getting the "stomach bug" that is going around because my friends...it is horrible! It all started Sunday night, it was my wonderful Mother's birthday and she cooked for us (now that just doesnt sound right does it?) Well not long after dinner was over the torture began and it lasted until well pretty much today:( The most terrible thing about it is that I had to miss my clinicals yesterday. Now one might think that getting to miss a nursing school clinical would be the highlight of one's week but not for me. See I was going to surgery this week, and I have wanted more than life itself to see a heart surgery!! But dont feel sorry for me yet because my wonderful instructor was able to reschedule a day in the OR for me and yes ladies and gentlemen I got to see heart surgery today!!!!! It was amazing, to see the doctors stop the heart to make incisions, putting the patient on the bypass machine where they blood is kept pumping while the heart is stopped and then "shocking" it back to life so to speak. Sitting there watching a heart beat in a persons chest was just the most wonderufl thing I have ever seen.
