"I have set the LORD always before me;
because he is at my right hand,
I shall not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad,
and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure...
You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore."
~Psalm 16

Last day of residency- old post never published

Started at 3am with another laboring patient. We delivered a tiny (5lb6oz) baby boy who seemed to come a bit early. Two days later I still feel very sleep deprived but man it was an awesome way to begin the final day of this chapter of my life that started in 2005. Crazy. 9+ years and two degrees, a kid and a family medicine board certification later... A chapter closes. Pretty excited about the next bit too. Excited to be able to spend more time with my daughter, have more flexibility to continue to serve in Haiti and thrilled to discover what happens next!

The rest of the day proved to be awesome as well. Clinic with a variety of diagnoses including my very last clinic patient, a seven year old girl who was yellow.

To celebrate, Mackenzie baked me a cake and took me out to dinner. I had some of the most delicious soup I've ever tasted in my life.
