Before I go I wanted to provide a brief description of where I'm going and what I'm doing!!
March 19-24 New Delhi, India: Taj Mahal, etc.!!!
March 24-April 21 Bangalore, India: Rotating at St. Johns Medical College in Community Medicine, Emergency Medicine (YEAH!!) and Dermatology. Staying at the Annexe III right across the road from the hospital. I hope there's internet so I can continue to blog easily...eek!
April 21-28 Ireland road-tripping with AJ!! This includes Dublin, Galway, Inishmore of the Aran Islands, and Cork. This is AJ and my reward for finishing Medical School before I start residency and move to Morgantown, West Virginia.
I can't wait to experience the Indian Culture and health care system as a poor student!!
Hi Abby! Your trip reminds me to recommend a novel written by a colleague at Mayo clinic. The Blue Notebook by James Levine was inspired by events he witnessed while doing exactly what you are doing, medical rotation in India. It's incredibly sad, but a quick and thought provoking read.
ReplyDeleteHope you're learning a lot and seeing wonderful things!
