Even if you try your very best, on some days, you can't save them all. On some nights, cases will deprive you of peace of mind (and sleep!)
The practice of Medicine will always be a journey filled with triumphs, losses & humbling experiences.

Being a doctor can sometimes be too much, taking some parts of you a bit at a time. Most of the time, you don’t even notice until a huge chunk has been taken out. Hence, being mindful about your well-being and taking time off for self-care are necessary.

Ordered swimsuits for my last beach trip but hindi umabot.
It means I have to have another beach trip para sulit, no? 😂

This made my day:
Referring MD: Buti na lang ikaw duty! Kaya bumaba ako e… (then goes on to endorse a toxic case…)
So, kahit natoxic ako, masaya ako kasi may masaya na ako yung naabutan nila sa reading room 😄

Today I learned how to change a flat tire from a gasoline boy who took pity on me.
When I handed him something for his efforts, he said it was too much & initially refused. I told him his kindness is priceless & insisted on it.
Reminder ng universe ng kabutihan 😊

When I get married, I want a Maid of honor and Dude of honor. 😉
Also, Gay of honor, pwede din, pero baka di ako payagan sa simbahan ng pari.

A female IR colleague and I were talking during the convention, the experience of a female IR is still different from that of a male one. Kaya nga konti kami e 😑

Only as an attending do I fully appreciate all the doctors who took time to teach me.
I didn’t realize they probably had notes to write, research papers to submit, patients waiting in the clinic.
Instead, they took time to teach.
What a gift.

Sometimes you get lucky. Since I was just passing by, I caught the last few seconds of this performance. Was able to get 2 pics, this and a really blurry one (not so high tech phone)
