Today was my first day shadowing Mrs. Gonzalez. Within the first hour I was able to witness a natural birth! Traumatizing but amazing experience to be able to see before me the whole delivery procedure and process. Mrs. Gonzalez also showed me around the hospital, introduced me to the nurses and showed me how to use some of the equipment. Around 5 o'clock, I was able to stand next to Mrs. Gonzalez and a pediatrician and observe the process of circumcision. Another rare and mind blowing moment that I was very fortunate to be able to experience and be a small part of. Today was a day well spent!

This marks the beginning of a whole new environment that I'm about to experience. Many emotions raging and I'm not too sure whether I'm more scared and nervous than excited. I hope to gain more knowledge on this career to be able to decided whether or not it is for me.
