What do you thank God for?

Went to a ball on thursday. It was a school ball, so most of the people were med students! To cut thigns short, there was lots of dancing and lots of booze. Yeah.. thats pretty much it. It ended at 1 and we left the hotel. What happened after that though happened really fast. I was with a group of friends, walking on the sidewalk. Then, one girl walking in front of us suddenly passed out and hit her head on the pavement. It wasn't pretty... she had an epileptic seizure. It must have been the combinations of loud music, booze, and the sudden change in environment. Or something. Anyway, i checked her pulse and her breathing, and then put her in the recovery position. Some others called the ambulance, and called some teachers (who are all qualified docs). So yeah, 2 teachers came and took care of her. The ambulance came half and hour later (half an hour!!) and took her away. She was ok though... but i think she has to pull out of med sch cos of her frequent seizures.

So yeah.. slept at 5am that morning, and had an 11 o'clock lecture on the heart and the coronary circuit to catch. That was pretty torturous... haha.
