Minor setbacks

Well, here I am at the start of week four. I missed the whole of week two with viral conjunctivitis so it doesn't feel like I have passed the half way mark yet. I felt my first week went well and was in control of my learning experience, but since then it has felt a little rocky and some new patients have tested my ability to stay objective. Caring about people and wishing them well only goes so far. Having the knowledge and putting it into practice is what will really help and it is something to continue striving for.
