Let's dream with our eyes wide open💰
Its every student’s joy when their teacher complements their work. Its every Doctor’s joy when a senior doctor/ specialist complements their work. I was in these shoes today. I’ll tell you about it. Every Saturday morning, we hold CMEs as a hospital. The entire staff is there and every department takes turns presenting. One department […]
I can’t complain about work today, maybe the fact that I miss matooke. This part of the country doesn’t have much of it. Today we pulled off our first “party” as interns. We organised a birthday something for one of our colleagues. It was a good laugh. The best we’ve had all our time here […]
I knowww, I didn’t live 3 days in one, but honestly speaking, I feel like I did. Past 3 days, this could be the first time I’m sobber and not worried about who hasn’t had their ECHO done or whose hyperkalemia isn’t going down despite doing everything possibly available, and why a 90 year old […]
Today, I had quite some pain to share, but I learnt of a friend’s illness 2 days ago. I somehow have forgotten about my own. My friend Emeru, 25 year old, very fit athlete with both an ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction, which he got following months of battling nephritic syndrome. He just finished school. […]
my colleagues and I decided last night that we’d wake up at 6am today and start the ward round so we get to finish very early and go to church for the first time this internship. We woke up, did everything as planned. But we didn’t make it to church. Somehow we failed to make […]
We know no weekends. And we have accepted that. We are not complaining, just reminding our dear friends and families that we love you dearly even when we don’t call you much or make it to planned getaways and parties. We still love you. 325 days to go
Today was good. I was sobber, I was alive and I believe I made the best decisions for my patients.
I completed my 30hours shift of no sleep but work today. Started my day yesterday and worked all through to the night . the night was very busy , so I got no sleep till morning and just crossed over to another day’s work. I actually got to shower at 11am the next day and […]
Never ever take a walk through causality department if you’re not on call/duty. You will either end up being on abrupt call there or you will be the causality. A few nights back, a colleague called me to go perform a cesarean section with him at around 9pm. It was his night duty on obstetrics […]
I have suffered from Migraines for the past 9 years. And my worst memories of medical school point back to those nights when I had migraines and couldn’t study, and times when my parents had to pick me from hostel at night to take me to the hospital. Those have been my worst moments as […]
