Grandpa

Last night my grandpa (the one you all knew from our Florida trip) passed away. He had a heart attack Monday night and there wasn't much that could be done after that except wait. He has had Alzheimer's for a long time and we knew that his heart was bad, but the anaethesia needed for surgery to fix it would have worsened his alzheimer's, so he decided about a year ago that he'd rather not have the surgery and just live out his life at home. My whole family was there when it happened (except me and Joe). I'm going home this weekend for the funeral.

Other than that I've been busy as usual. I'm still taking an un-Godly number of classes (13!) and now I work in the student clinic after school too. We are in the midst of midterms, which are never fun, but clinic is going really well. I really like it and my patients are awesome! In January I will be working in the outpatient clinic where I will have to recruit my own patients in the community. Once I get enough patients, adjustments, and hours put in there I will be able to do different internships in the area. It almost feels like I'm a real Dr. already! I love it!
