During an off time on call last night (I’m on anaesthesiology now, which means I have time to breathe on calls) I read this article. On BBC. And wow, did it rub me up the wrong way. Should doctors be allowed to nap on the job? Well, CLEARLY, getting sleep is a privilege held by those with human rights. Doctors? Did you know ...

Behind the White Coat. Beats a real human heart…. April 6, 2015. April 6, 2015. What would you tell your daughter if she wanted to be a neurosurgeon? My daughter had a birthday recently.

So I found myself telling her little friend and her friend’s mom, who both seemed perfectly nice, that we would make plans to do that sometime. Medicine will hurt her. I wil...

Confessional Time | Behind the White Coat
https://doctorly.wordpress.com/2015/01/31/confessional-time
Behind the White Coat. Beats a real human heart…. January 31, 2015. January 31, 2015. I realized Thursday that I was not taking care of myself very well. It is a long story but I found myself closing the door of my office and crying out of anger and frustration. I can take a lot of anger and frustration before I break down so this was alarming. I decided that I needed to play hookie from the clinic for a few days to take care of me. In the process of that, I read this:. Causes of physician burn out?

My house is less messy than usual, than in the past, I s...

https://julitownsend.wordpress.com/2015/01/03/beginnings
Juli Townsend's Transition to Home. Moving back to Australia after ten years living overseas. January 3, 2015. New Year’s Day sunset, 2015. My first day of 2015 didn’t begin well. I’d woken too early, so I was tired and couldn’t seem to find the motivation to do any of the things that usually make me feel better. Instead, I felt grumpy and dissatisfied with those aspects of my life that weren’t the way I wanted them. Fortunately, I know a beginning’s mood doesn’t predict what lies ahead. But beginnings h...
