Jenny McJennyson, at it again.
Jenny McJennyson sent me these two gems over the weekend:
1.) 2 year old male child has a simple febrile seizure. Mom says that they called their doctors office, and spoke with Jenny McJennyson, who directed them to the ER after telling mom that the child would need a CT of the brain to rule-out brain tumor. No joke. Thankfully, mom was reasonable. Kid is totally fine. Afebrile. Playful. We spared him the radiation after a good heart-to-heart. I asked mom: "I'm sorry, who did you...

Anyone else enjoy undergrad coursework way more than med school coursework?
Hey everyone,
Been studying all day, and came to a realization. I feel like medical school is 90% memorization. I literally spent all day learning about the minutiae that separates the different brain tumors. The day before, I spent all day memorizing and watching sketchy to learn the autonomic drugs.

Heading into College- I want college to help me prepare for medical school
I've been really motivated to become a doctor for the past five years ever since my mom was saved after a brain tumor was removed from her. I slacked off most of highschool but really have been changing the past year and a half as my future becomes more relevant. I understand the obvious aspects of what it take to get into medical school, high GPA, high MCAT, research, etc. but I want College to also prepare me for Medical School. I plan on taking anatomy and physiology classes just to...

Medicine Sucks
Had to tell a family "Yeah, the reason your 8 yo daughter has been having those headaches is because she's got a big old brain tumor." Medicine sucks. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Advise needed. Pharmd or PhD
Im Sure the subject has been covered in full but I'm asking for advice a little more tailored to my situation.
Hey guy, so Im 30 years old married with 3 kids under 4 years old. My oldest daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor called AT/RT two and half years ago. She is doing great by the way. After spending two years basically living at MD Anderson I have decided I want to get involved with the cancer fight by going to school.
I am now 3 semesters in and I'm loving it.
At this point...
