Almost half way


so i am almost half way through a very very long week. the first half was ridiculously busy. patients just kept coming. monday was a public holiday and we were going non stop. there was no fewer than 8 people waiting at any given time. we had atleast 4 traumas, countless heart attacks and the rest of general stuff. tuesday was no different. so now i am heading into the evening portions of the week and i pray that they are better than the mornings. this week has also been one of rain, rain and more rain. i didn't mind that so much, but it made me not want to get out of the bed. :) all in all i am still plugging along. nothing much to report.

oh i forgot to say that i did help to save a man's life on Mon. he was having a heart attack in front of my eyes. quick diagnosis and management helped to get him to the cardiac cath lab quickly. he had almost complete occlusion of his LAD artery. he was young too. 44 yrs old. so i guess its reason's like that why i decided to do medicine. i just have to remember that when the days get like monday and tuesday, and i want to switch professions....:)

the above pic is of the clock at central train station, early tuesday morning while i was on the way to work. it was gloriously foggy. i love it when the city gets like that.....
