So I'm on Radiology right now, which means that I spend my day taking x-rays of whatever patients need them from dogs and cats to horses to cows and yesterday, a sheep. Poor Roadrunner came in for a bandage change for his broken leg and I have to admit that animals being itchy under their casts never occurred to me before yesterday. That ram just stretched out on the ground, lips quivering, as they scrubbed and scratched his leg after the cast was off.
The rotation that I had before this one was Oncology and it was by far the most depressing rotation I've been on. It seems like every other patient you saw received a death sentence. It is definitely not the field for me. I learned a lot from it though and the clinicians I worked with were great.
