All doctors have one or more specific groups of patients with whom they vibe really well, you know the ones who consistently think you’re the best doctor they’ve ever had. If you’re a medblr, reblog this and tag with your «target audience». Mine is little old ladies with respiratory issues and anxiety.

My dad and I once had a disagreement over him using the adage "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."

I said, "That's just not true. Sometimes what doesn't kill you leaves you brittle and injured or traumatized."

He stopped and thought about that for a while. He came back later, and said, "It's like wood glue."

He pointed to my bookshelf, which he helped me salvage a while ago. He said, "Do you remember how I explained that, once we used the wood glue on them, the shelves would actually be stronger than they were before they broke?"

I did.

"But before we used the wood glue, those shelves were broken. They couldn't hold up shit. If you had put books on them, they would have collapsed. And that wood glue had to set awhile. If we put anything on them too early, they would have collapsed just the same as if we'd never fixed them at all. You've got to give these things time to set."

It sounded like a pretty good metaphor to me, but one thing I did pick up on was that whatever broke those shelves, that's not the thing that made them stronger. That just broke them. It was being fixed that made them stronger. It was the glue.

So my dad and I agreed, what doesn't kill you doesn't actually make you stronger, but healing does. And if you feel like healing hasn't made you stronger than you were before, you're probably not done healing. You've got to give these things time to set.

15.09.2022|| I love green and coffee so much. I'm really busy with all the assignments and exams these days. Studying is so much more fun when I do it with friends and snacks. Been scoring full in all the maths tests for which I'm really proud of myself. I've been trying to balance things in life lately and I'd like to think I'm succeeding!! Finally started going to bed before 12 and getting better at self care. Skz are releasing maxident near my birthday and I'm so excited for it!!!

Tiny itty bitty baby. I gave him a cheeto*.

I finally organized myself and I found out I am very behind, I have a lot of things due this week, and only two more weeks before my next midterms period.

Today it’s Independence Day in Mexico, most people would be celebrating with family and friends but because I have a lot of stuff pending I won’t, I’m sad about it but it was written in my contract.

As for today I finished the work on a presentation for infectopedia, did notes on Werdnig Hoffman and other related syndromes and other stuff for genetics. I cleaned the house and did groceries:D

*For cheeto I mean pellets for rats, not truly Cheetos.

I feel super bad because I haven’t been as active as I promised. This past weeks with the midterms and proyecta had been busy as heck. I swear I’m trying but when I remember its so late and I have no energy to post or to think.

Besides Peds I got all 80s, 90s and 100s, so at least it’s paying off all the effort.

As for today I finished a presentation on meningococcus vaccine, I graded the reports of my students and notes about this and that.

Medical Prescription is like Internal Medicine but with steroids.

Yesterday I pulled an all-nighter talking with internet strangers and whatnot, in consequence I felt like crap today, all day long, I took a nap and still didn’t feel good, so I just made a mango smoothie and began taking notes and studied. But now I’ll go to sleep to avoid repeating the same mistake.

Tomorrow I have to go to the lab to induce rats with pento, not a day free I swear to god.

I swear I didn't forget to post, the thing is my week has been super busy, even though I didn't had classes this past three days. I had my infecto pedia midterm, that was heavy af, 120 questions in 2 hours and 5 of them had 10 subquestions and a lot of them had multiple answers... but I managed to get an 80, the sweetest 80 I had in all my life.

My mom's here, she came to visit and to go to a medical appointment, I'm nervous and she's too but it's necessary. If so I'll tell the reason after we get the news.

Next Tuesday I'll have my last midterm of the period, but also it's the hardest one.

09.05.22 ‧₊˚✩彡 Today I am taking notes for History and, (hopefully), finishing an essay I have for English. The weather is kind of gloomy where I am which is having a weird effect on my mood, although, I have been able to get some stuff done anyway so...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I also want to get some more personal writing done today. I have a habit of starting a bunch of things and then just abandoning it, especially when it comes to writing. So, my goal for today is to work on some projects I forgot I had. ˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗

today's slow sunday setup, i am currently working at my linguistic paper but i'm already so curious about the reading pensum for my literature class, so i might have a peak when i am done with working on my paper and cleaning for today! (cleaning really is necessary, lol)

also i am incredibly longing for a cozy autumn start, it is my favourite season and i am looking forward to it so so so much!
