First day off..

Today is my first day off in three weeks!! (besides labor day) I think I am starting to get back into the groove of things. My next patients that I treated at the VA were really nice, hooray!! I was so relieved that they were nice, it made me feel a lot better about my skills. I got to place arestin in some deep pockets on a patient at the VA, although, it doesn't count towards my requirements I guess since we have not had our lab on it yet.  We give four more injections to each other on Friday, I am pretty excited!! I don't really want to get the shots, even though I know that Michelle will do fabulous, they are still shots!! So far school is going pretty well, I hope it keeps going this well!

3 shots down!!

Today we gave each other 3 shots! Michelle did so well!! She was the first one to give the injections and she was a champ! Dr. Hanson was instructing us, and she said we were definitely not "ninnies"! I hope that I feel comfortable when it comes to giving my patients injections. Michelle has really prominent landmarks in her mouth, which made it really easy to give the injections. If only everyone has mouths like Michelle. Next week we will do 4 shots, wish me luck!!
