surgery!

today was such a good day-
aside from the early hour that i was awakened from my slumber, i LOVED my day at clinicals today. i got to visit the short-stay portion of the hospital, instead of the med-surg floor.
this meant:
-no drug cards to make the night before
-watching an angiogram (AMAZING!)
-being passed from nurse to nurse: all of whom were exceptionally gracious and willingly to teach me!
-getting to wear comfortable scrubs into surgery
-watching a hysterectomy and bladder reconstruction
-being a little overwhelmed with all i still have to learn
-being encouraged to see how i get to apply what i'm learning
-being excited to be a nurse!
