Living my Dream

For the past four weeks I have been working/ orienting to not only the hospital but also to my floor that I will be working on. I am loving every aspect of my job, making people smile when they are down or just bringing comfort or relief when needed. Every day brings a new adventure and a new set of patients to touch. People have noticed that I don't have a strong twang in my speech and get asked where I am from. I say Cali and everyone says, "What brought you to East Texas and Tyler?" a simple answer of being offered a job but more importantly being called to the city.

My coworkers are great, everyone is so willing to help me not only learn the processes ETMC does things but also they love to teach and make it welcoming. I am learning constantly and one of the biggest lesson is the how different the hospitals are run out in East Texas than Cali especially pertaining to the medical technology. Here in Texas we are still doing paper charting and trying to figure out the doctors handwritting, which let me tell you its like reading a foreign language. Another huge difference out here in the south is how NICE everyone is, whether a coworker or even just friends or family of patients.

I am loving every bit of the South and beyond thankful to have a wonderful job and a wonderful place to live. Thanks to Tanya and Bryan I am able to get my feet on the ground. Just a simple reminder of how God always provides for his children.
