yesterday i joined a medical mission to brgy. sta lucia, trece martires cavite..they provided us with a transpo but it was a long jeepney ride ( i think it was a 2+ hour ride). it was there where i experienced my first hands on minor surgery...my first shot of anaesthesia, my first cut and my first suture on an actual patient. the doctors that joined us did a demo on how to do it, then they asked us to look for a partner and off we go. although the procedures are easy, it was very tiring especially when you have a lot of patients. after a lot of blood, cuts, stitches and a long day of work, it was very fullfilling!
