We went out quite a bit this week--Monday night Richard went to the some celebratory parties with classmates after their first exam, while Tilly and I caught some beauty rest. Tuesday night we caught up with some friends we hadn't seen in a while and had dinner while the babies played. Wednesday we went to the circus with some friends who are moving to Australia. Thursday we all stayed home relaxing, and the same goes for today!Richard made honors on his first exam, we are really excited and proud of him! They dove right in to the next assignment: heart and lungs. He came home and told me his cadaver (mildred) had had a coronary bypass surgery, I am not exactly sure what that means but she had some heart work done and he got to see where they had reworked stuff... and the stitches in her sternum (holding the bone together). He also held her heart in his double gloved hand (he don't know where that girl been). The doctor teaching came around and said mildred had the nicest lungs he had ever seen, this took my breath away. ;)
He has also been hard at work on the Health care reform and took part in conference calls with the white house and dc advocacy gurus in efforts to push a single payer plan.
