New Hospital

These are two pictures from my trip to Ecuador with Matt during first year. The mountain is Ilinizas and I can't remember if we were climbing up the north or south peak. I did eat the critter on the plate and there are some other pictures to prove it.


Tomorrow morning I will be starting pediatric neurology at a new hospital. I hadn't even spent two weeks at the last one. Third year medical school is like getting hired and fired every two weeks with three or four bosses looking over your shoulder at all times. Just when you think you might have one place figured out, you have to move on to the next one. Sometimes you wonder if you can find the new hospital in the morning. How long does it take to get there. Where are students allowed to park. Where is the rounding room. How do you contact your weekly boss. Where can you put your books. Where are the bathrooms. Where can you find food. Anyway, I guess it is all just part of the process.
The weekend was good. The assembly in Lewisville had a series of Bible meetings. It was mostly teaching with a little discussion afterwards. I won't go into all the details here. One of the questions that I was discussing afterwards with a law student was how to share the gospel with an atheist. Interesting stuff.

that first picture explains why you like (or love?) ecuador so much. amazing!
i can't imagine learning a new hospital every couple weeks. i can still get lost trying to find meetings, etc. in the one i'm at now, and i've been working there for almost 3 years.
has al maurer talked to you about the new project he's undertaking? he's trying to prove the bible without using the bible, so when he does talk to atheists he can have more to say to the question "well what if i don't believe the bible?". he even had a lawyer look for holes.
