While I was checking out participating blogs of Friday Fill-Ins I found a service called Entrecard. Basically, you put their widget on your sidebar. You can rent the spot next to it to other blogs to earn credits. But mainly, you can go to other member blogs, click on their widget and “drop your card”, [...]
Argh! I remember this blog I really liked to read. It was of a young woman who immigrated to Sweden – originally with her husband, but they seperated in the end. I was very well written and funny and she calls Migrationsverket the irritation office. Hehe It also has the typical traffic sign with the [...]
I’m sitting on the train to Stockholm (well – yesterday. When I’m writing this. Which will be published tomorrow. Sometimes I think I might rip a hole into the space-time-continuum or something.) Sadly because my tickets were booked from work, I’m travelling second class. Normally I take first, because I tend to book very early, [...]
So there’s something I always remember about dealing with people. When I was an intern in my last year of med school, I did my voluntary assignment, naturally, in psychiatry. I was placed on an open unit dealing with patients with affective disorders. There was a resident there, a woman called A – maybe in [...]
My first time! <3 This fun meme is found here: Click 1. Why do we have to sleep? 2. Stupid things I used to do occasionally are now habits. 3. I have been staying up for too long. 4. I had never heard the phrase “Tc-99m-sestamibi” and it‘s pretty strange. 5. I’m daydreaming the way [...]
She’s well-dressed, her white hair a sporty short style, her make up well done. I’ve met her only once, almost two months ago during her stay on the psych ICU. She had just tried to kill herself the second time. We did rounds and called her in to talk to her, the attending, two interns [...]
My grandmother is going down the same path. She has never been the same after my grandfather passed away. She’s depressed and extremely anxious, and I’m more than convinced that if her faith didn’t forbid it so adamantly, she would have taken her life long ago. She’s grown to be forgetful, and while that is [...]
I’ve always been close to my grandmother. I think I was closer to my grandfather when I was very small, but as soon as I came into my teens, I grew closer to her. This is difficult, because I had to write a post like this about my grandfather once, and I remember what happened [...]
I kind of lost track of this whole blogging business when I started my rotation at Childrens’ psychiatry last summer. It’s in BiggerTown, meaning I’m looking at a one hour commute from TinyTown each way. Which, as it turns out, is killing me rather effectively – apparently I’m a commute-wuss. The rotation was awesome, however. [...]
