http://babymedic.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Journal entries documenting my path as a student of medicine, from paramedic to physician. Tuesday, June 2, 2009. I've been spending weekends as a part time instructor at the local community college, teaching paramedic students about things I've only recently myself become passingly competent. The students stare back at me in horror, and I smile. That is precisely the right reaction. Herman Mellivle, Moby Dick. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This is a journal documenting my experiences as paramedic, turned ...

This kid was really sick. So off we went, down th...

Journal entries documenting my path as a student of medicine, from paramedic to physician. Sunday, November 23, 2008. I have been lucky to associate some of this science with my work on the road. These studies have taught me about the importance of detail. To know a thing is to understand how and why it behaves the way it does, to understand it from every angle. This kind of scientific intimacy brings to light exactly how delicate our tools are, and how specifically they are engineered. Epinephrine) in w...
