To finish off my week as Doctor, I posted my blogs and then went to the hospital where a 4yo malnourished boy named Davenson was waiting for me. I was like are you kidding me right now?? He is a fighter, he does not like me, and really does not like it when I force feed him the milk. Tuesday and Wednesday morning I was greeted with bodily fluids from Dieselmet. Tuesday he had diarrhea everywhere, Wednesday he threw up everywhere. Both days I had to give him a bath which he did not appreciate, and it wasn’t that fun for me either. Did I mention that both days that was the first room I went into when I started my day. I am so thankful I get to drink coffee here! Then Wednesday afternoon we had an 11mo malnourished baby come in, named Mervens. I placed a tube in his nose and was giving him milk through the tube. So this has definitely been a week of force feeding children, the malnourished babies are ruling my life right now. I feel that all I do is make milk, and then force feed it; which is pretty much my least favorite thing ever, it is pretty horrible but I keep reminding myself this will save their life!
