Magical!

One of the ED's I work at sent out a survey asking questions about burnout. Well, they asked, so I answered.

Was in pre-op for an emergent take back over the weekend. My chief arrived & in the middle of her asking me (the intern) to put in orders for the case, the male anesthesia resident asked if she was the pre-op nurse. She cordially explained she was the chief surgical resident 1/10

Please know that COVID-19 scares the doctors and nurses and other healthcare workers. We are afraid. Because we have witnessed what it can do if you or your loved ones get severe COVID. We know that money, power and fame can’t purchase a cure.

How did it take me this long to find the perfect analogy to explain the need for anticoagulation in Afib to my fellow Southerners?! Me: “Blood is the consistency of gravy. If you stop stirring your roux evenly—“ Pt: “It clumps!” Me: “Here’s your gravy thinner.”

Yay!! #ucimatchday so proud of our amazing students and physicians!

In conclusion, the lessons I wish I learned much sooner in my surgery training which also carry over to life: 1) Different people contribute in different ways. 2) My most urgent matter is not necessarily someone else's. 3) Gratitude and encouragement should be shared often.

My periodic tweet to remind us to not mistake kindness for weakness!!
