 So guys, don't forget to hit up my clinical rotation playlist. I will leave a link for that, but you can always just go ahead and type it into my search bar if you're searching for what I'm doing on my different rotations. What's up you guys? The Donna, welcome back to my channel. As you can see, I am at the beach here at beautiful Ocean City. I'm on my weekend because guess what you guys, I have weekends off on this particular rotation, which is amazing. So I get to go hang out with my family and just kind of relax and get away and just rejuvenate, which is something that you, you kind of didn't really take advantage of during didactic gear because you were just studying consistently and continuously, but now with rotations around, you have a lot more time to kind of study during the week because you're not being bombarded every single week with testing quizzes. So that is one thing I really, really like about my rotations. I get to kind of spend it out here and just relax and have fun. So if you're on your clinical rotations or looking forward to clinical rotations, your didactic gear, fear not, your time will come soon enough. You'll have that break. You'll have some time to just kind of chill out like me here on the beach. So fear not you guys, hang in there as you're almost there. I am on my rotation, my cardiothoracic surgery rotation this month. And I have just finished my first week. So that's what we're gonna talk about my first week on CT surgery. So really and truly, I had an amazing time. We're in the actual surgery, like me suturing and doing stuff on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Monday, Wednesday and Fridays we're actually in the clinic seeing patients. So it was pretty interesting because the first day I'm there, I'm seeing patients right away, like looking at CT scans, which I'm not the best at. So I'm getting a lot of practice on this particular rotation, which is really, really interesting and really cool. It's gonna prepare me for future rotations that I'm gonna actually have to be looking at CT scans a lot more often. So I really appreciated that. Another thing I really liked about this were just all of the people because a lot of the people that we're seeing are cancer patients or people that had cancer and they're now in remission. So it's really cool just being able to talk to them kind of just get a little bit of their life story and then kind of keep it moving after that. But one of the most like, I guess saddest parts of this particular rotation is telling people, hey, we found a mass in your lung and it is suspicious for cancer. We can't definitively say it until we go in and do surgery, but going in and giving people that news, it's really hard. Other than that, it was pretty cool. I went into surgery on Tuesday and Thursday. We were doing lobectomies, actually like resecting people's whole lung or like pneumonectomies, which was interesting like seeing the whole process. It's done through video assisted techniques. So we're doing it like under an actual like scope and we're going in and we're cutting. And then I'm closing. Yes, me, I'm doing my hand ties. I'm suturing. They allowed me to close up like the two more superficial layers, which is really cool because I'm like, I'm just kind of one month out of didactic gear and I'm already suturing people. So it's been quite a ride. I've had a great time and I'm able to spend my weekends here at the beach, chilling out, having fun, but still I have to go home and do work. So it's not all fun on rotations. You still have to study. You still have to do work, but so far so good. I will keep you guys posted in another three weeks on how my whole rotation went. I'll give you my wrap up on that on what I maybe kind of sorta saw at the end and then what I'm really looking forward to on my next rotation. So thank you guys so much for watching.
