Day 714

I got my sylabus for my first rotation, neuro-psych, today and it made me very excited. Excited? To start school again? Heck yes I am.

Meanwhile, dad’s still in the hospital. Cardiac issues are completely ruled out at this point and an endoscopy is scheduled tomorrow which I’m hoping to observe. Oh the privileges of having a short white coat. They’ll almost let you in anywhere. If I sound nonchalant about the whole thing, I assure you, I’m concerned for my father but I’m not worried. He’s not even hooked up to anything. He’s hanging out in bed board, reading, and hoping to get back to work soon. I’m more worried about the ridiculously expensive cost of staying in the hospital for so many days. I wish the doctors worked in shifts to do things like endoscopies and not just one person from 9 to 5. He could have been out of here this morning. Anyway, we expect the problem to be either an ulcer, a hiatal hernia, or an infected Mallory Weiss tear.
