Today I would like to share with you this interesting article in medscape. It is "Examining the Fingernails When Evaluating Presenting Symptoms in Elderly Patients by Mark E. Williams, MD" http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/712251 I shall remind myself to examine the fingernails of my patients when i do my elderly block next year. How time flies.. I've done my surgery 3, child health, psychiatry and med2 (neuro, onco, infectious disease) now. Feeling more confident and competent maybe.. there's just so much to learn. Even though i didn't do well in some blocks, i did enjoyed them.. first few days were dreadful and traumatizing. but speaking to patients, making new friends, getting wee signature book sign off, writing reports and the eagerness of getting pass assessment every now and then is all good. haha. Thank god for the opportunity to be trained and polished. Finally 3 weeks of holidays! wait..consider excluding the weekends, 3 weeks is just 15 days! and so i shall stay in dundee this christmas. Spend time revising whatever i've learn, do my roce and 4th year project. and not to forget, Merry christmas and happy new year everyone! I should wake up early every morning to catch the spiritual atmosphere for quiet time. This is new year resolution. It is quite true what adeline shared about the 7th law of spiritual success during cf, our soul is like a garden that needs to be mend and maintained. 'The Christian Life is a way of living and not merely a decision once made.' '' The law of degeneration runs through the whole creation. If we neglect our body, it will rapidly deteriorate. If we neglect the mind, it will degenerate into imbecility. If the conscience, it will run off into lawlessness and vice'' '' If we neglect the usual means of keeping a garden in order, how shall it escape turning into weeds? If we neglect the soul, how shall ie escape dissolution and death? Experience shows that we will shape ourselves further into sin...unless we expend some energy and effort to move against it.'' It is so tempting to do things that is not delightful in god's sight sometimes. and once we sin, it is easier to repeat the sin again without feeling as bad, time and again, until a point where our spirit is empty, soul is dead, emotionless or should i say cold hearted inside. Someone describe her life just like the song sang by Evanescence - Wake Me Up Inside. (Wake me up) Wake me up inside.
(I can’t wake up) Wake me up inside.
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark. (Wake me up) Bid my blood to run.
(I can’t wake up)Before I come undone.
(Save me)Save me from the nothing I've become. John 15:5: (Jesus said): "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him; he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." Amen. Thank god for He is a much greater force than sin. By reading the bible, praying, and meditating on God's word as we repent and confess to God and allowing Him to work in our life..we will bear the fruit. The fruits of the holy spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. God's voice is still and softer than all the other things on earth.. In order to hear what God has to say, we need to be still in the midst of all out busyness. '' A diver who would be too busy to think about making sure his air supply is in good working order before he descends into the depths would be no more foolish than the man who descends into the stifling atmosphere of today's world without getting his apparatus of prayer connected with the pure air of kingdom of God'' |
