Time Marches On

I can't believe how time has been flying lately! I finished up my transplant surgery rotation on Saturday after another exciting week involving a few liver transplants, a kidney transplant, and an organ harvest. I think the most difficult part was sewing up the empty little body of a toddler after her organs were harvested. Yet, I was also able to see how her healthy liver gave new life to another young girl. Tomorrow I will begin the marathon that is general surgery at Ben Taub, the county hospital. Over the weekend, I was able to relax with friends. I went to Morning Glory with Teresa at City Centre (above)- a posh, up-and-coming shopping area in northwest Houston. On Saturday night I went out for drinks with Amy, Aaron, and Javier. As you can see, roomie Javier and I are looking more and more alike everyday!
