I found my board patient!!!

I can't believe the luck of today... I found my board patient. My afternoon patient cancelled so I had Mr Solamon call her and she actually answered and said she can come in! No one has luck like this, especially me this last semester! Anyways long story short, she qualifies on both quads on the mandible. The only problem is that she only speaks spanish, and I only speak english. Good thing I have a friend that speaks both...

I learned how hard it is to take xrays with someone you can not explain it too, especially if they wont bite down all the way! Good thing Emily is amazing in her language abilities and she is so wonderful that she helped me!

Yep...

I agree with Camille... May will be here before we know it! And lets be honest, I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Today I was able to see some eaiser patients and get those requirements done! Yeah! But what I want to write today of is my great expeirence in radiology (why is it if you screw it all up they say that it's a great experience, I say it sucked!) I did a full mouth with scan-x. She had a tiny mouth so we thought we could get them all on one film. And I was almost right except on a few the root just curved right out of the film. So after loading them, I did the others... and you have to load them all seperatly or else they get errased! yes, I lost all of those xrays... and she did not want to take them agian, who would! aghh! Oh well, I learned, hope you guys do to!
