Hey letha, welcome back. You haven't missed much as its just the usual stuff. Have fun as you update yourself with the lots of posts that were made while you were away. Meanwhile, any new developments or experiences you may wish to share with us?

I'm finally on my A&E placement (ER for the US), and I'm tired, never been so busy... It's great :-6

The other day I was pacing someones heart, it was better than seeing a baby born, one minute the patient was as cold as death, colourless and unresponsive, we put an external pacemaker in got the heart going from 30bpm to 70bpm and within minutes everything began to reverse.

Medicine and life can be amazing, the fact I was watching an image of the heart on a monitor as well was truely mind blowing.

Oh and of course there's been the regular misunderstandings between me and the other half, but we work through them :-4

I'm reading sad news on here from brave people, love to all

Hi letha...it's been a while. Let's see, you missed two meltdowns, three medical emergiencies, an exodus, and a return.

No eek about it, it's great to see you back. Loads of new faces here I am sure you noticed.

Welcome back.

I noticed both the new and the missing faces. I'm just being polite and not asking, guess Jives has some truth in his rather elaborate post :yh_rotfl

Oh ask away there are no secrets here

The earth did a little tilt on the FG but I think it has been righted now.

I've asked in PM, there are things that should not be dragged up and I'm not sure if it's one of those things or not :yh_whistl
