I live in two very different worlds striving to do the same thing; helping people get better. I will do my best to give more of the ups rather than the downs of lab/academic life and my time on the ambulance/med school training, but at times there will be rants on the less than pleasant aspects. Life is both the good and the bad, what matters is what you take away from both.

And all those little mistakes come back to you
Not long after I got my first code, my station did a CPR class (mostly for several new people who needed CPR training, but I took it for re-certification reasons). As I sat through the class, it seemed like every little scenario reminded me not only of my call, but what I could have done better. I felt like a brand new EMT again who was just trying to figure out what on earth to do with cardiac patients. I should have been more prepared. I should have done better. I guess the lesson learned was practice, practice, practice.
