day with a doctor! @ 6:35 PM

spent a day with Dr. Smith! he's a haematologist consultant and i think he's quite a good one (from all the talking and the certs he has gotten).n he's a really sweet guy.so nice to students, patients and everyone else.haha

lets see.i didnt get to do anything today, but i saw alot.it was a very non-hands-on day.but i enjoyed it!

got to see how randomised controlled trials are done.went into the haematology lab to see how the blood samples are processed! even showed me blood firms on the microscope! n i learn new stuffs! =D haha.auer rods are found in acute myeloid leukamia! showed me the machine for immunoflorescent as well! interesting!

got to break a bad new to a patient.she took is relatively well, but the son didnt i guess.after we walked out of the room, he came out n asked us how long his mum is gona live for.looked quite distressed and worried.haiz =x

n went to see another cancer patient.she almost cried in the room =( made mi wanna cry.haiz but after we sent her back to her seat, i could see her sobbing there.i wish she would get well soon.it's hard to tolerate the treatment.n she seems to have difficulty with the current ones already. =(

then saw another patient with bone marrow failure.she didnt want to stay in community hospital cause she has some misunderstanding about it.so the whole family was there, but they couldnt come to a conclusion themselves either.n she opted for no resuscitation if anything were to happen.i hope not.

so overall i saw lots! even tho i did nothing.but it's very eventful!

enjoyed it totally! n going to the marae tml! it's gona be fun i hope! =)
