Advice

People are going to tell you all kinds of crap before you start this journey with your husband or wife. Some of these people have never gone through what you are about to experience, some of them might even be your closest friends or family.

But, if there is one thing I've learned, it's this:

Medical school comes first. The hospital comes first. Studying comes first.  It's the nature of the business, and although your wife or husband would much rather be with you, with your kids, with your family; When one of those things calls, they have to go. And that's that.  

That is a hard reality. But, from my experience, knowing and understanding that, will make the journey easier. Josh always tells me, that if he had a choice, he would be with me.  But, when someone devotes their life to medicine, it is no longer their choice. 

Goodbye for now,
