My girlie

My girlie

This is my beautiful girlie - who is (right now as I type) taking her first final exam. This is the big scary one - 16 stations where she will have 6 minutes for each one, to present all she knows about what is in front of her, be it a patient with a particular condition which she has to diagnose, a part of the body to examine, or an ECG or x-ray to interpret or blood to take or a canula to insert. They flick from one area of the body to the next - so fast! 5 years of learning! We have been practising for weeks - being patients which has involved a lot of laughing. Hopefully she won't be laughing now - or crying either! We will all be glad when this exam is over. She then has 4 exams next week. And then it will be done - and all being well she will be Dr Chloe.

Tomorrow we go to Chelsea - I have been watching the coverage on the BBC and can't wait to actually be there - hopefully with a little bit of sunshine and no rain! I am having a rest day today to prepare! Kit arrives this evening ready for a very early start in the morning.
