Soon to be Dr. Toti
Kyle's White Coat Ceremony was the defining point of wow, we are really in med school. People may laugh when I say "we" are in med school, but it is something we are doing as husband and wife. Yes, Kyle has the hard part of studying and remembering all those muscles, bones, diseases, so on and so forth, but I am supporting him by always being there for him when he needs me. Kyle was the most handsome doctor there and I was so proud of him. The first picture he's standing by what they call a "sim patient", it's a robot patient that responds and everything. They will have the opportunity to work with the robot and hired patients the first and second year. He has already had the chance to meet with one hired patient and diagnosed her cough fabulously. He puts in a lot of hard work and a lot of studying, I mean A LOT of studying and it will one day pay off. I don't doubt that he will make a wonderful, caring, smart doctor. Keep Kyle in your prayers as he continues to learn more and more each day. His Dean at the school described it perfectly all the information you get out of med school is like trying to drink from a fire hose. There is just so much to learn in the 2 years he's actually in the classroom. Be aware that he will try out some of the "manipulation" that he has learned. Being a D.O. he has learned ways to manipulate the body. The first week was nice it was back rubs and enjoyable things and then he learned the other stuff. How to get rid of headaches, which doesn't work if you don't have a headached instead I wound up saying ouch, now my head hurts. He has learned how to get rid of cramps, get your blood flowing, and so many others. So be careful if he says come here let me try this out on you, just kidding. He's a great med student and will somebody be the best doctor.
