Tuesday

Icelandic National Cancer Institute

Its 8 o´clock in the morning and I just finished my cheerio´s breakfast. Making my preparations for my last day of the Ob & Gyn routine. While I was there this summer the cancer search center was closed. So now im making up the last day of the program.

I will spend the day with a specialist at the center, which means taking Pap smears and mammograms all day...

I bet these women are just dying to meet me there and letting me retreive a handful of cells from their cervix and squeezing their breast between two cold metal plates in the mammography.

i already know what the story is going to be, but after having spent 7 weeks at the department, there is nothing I take personal anymore. All I want out of this is just to be able to do a few samples and pictures for myself, since im going to be a real doctor one day.

I will give you the real scoop once this is over .... My experience in the past is that the ladies are not very fond of a young handsome doctor any where close to them in this situation. Amazing how good looks can take away your professionalism.
