It feels really nice to be learning new things everyday. I have been reconsidering if I would want to go to grad school for nutrition or go to PA school. I have been working in research since I graduated and I love the ever changing nature of healthcare I just really want a job where I have flexibility to be a parent at some point.

I never had a great family life so this is something that is super important to me. Even though I want to watch the patriarchy burn to the ground I still want to be able to prioritize my child in its first year or two without worrying about finances. And SJW tumblr pls don’t come for me because I felt this way when I thought my life partner was going to be a woman.

anything they don't understand (or feel like working on) is the neuro; anything neuro is the thing they don't feel like bothering with - the main point is dodging responsibility, in both practical and legal contexts.

- I'm angry at myself for taking so many years to figure it out - the PA is sent in not to be compassionate or collect information, they're sent in to prevent the MD from having to admit they knew something was wrong and didn't do any tests or pay even pretend-attention to anything their patient reported. The PA is sent in to fish for things that offer plausible deniability to the doctor. I'm also angry at the Physician's Assistants that tricked me into thinking they had empathy & were about to get to work actually helping in some way.

If you're a PA and your boss asks you to go in to fish for psychiatric "tells" from a patient reporting chronic pain / illness, you've got the burden of guilt. It's big because

“I know this is [insert hospital name] but it’s not a Burger King”

“I’m pretty sure Benadryl is 1mg per kg, at least that’s what I give my dog.”

Libraries are my favorite place to study. I love finding the perfect secluded spot.
