My medical journey thus far
It's one heck of a rat race. It's thrilling, exhilarating, depressing and yet fills you up with life. When I was growing up, I always wanted to be a doctor. I have heard quite a lot about being a doctor at different stages in my life Earlier days, it was all fun and games. Doctors were cool. I wanted that. To save lives and be cool. Flash forward, a few years later. I still wanted to be a doctor. Only, I wanted it for a different reason. i didn't want it for the sake of the coolness. No, I really wanted to save lives. I remember when I had just taken my last paper in high school finals, I was so excited. Finally done with grade school. I can finally begin my medical journey. A doctor friend advised me that whatever I saw as challenges were nothing compared to what is yet to come in med school. Boy was he right. Preclinical years...the anatomy and physiology was fun, though the Biochem....I tried. Lol. But I couldn't wait to finally leave the dissection lab with all...
