Med training is ridiculously hard as it is, you diligently practicing your religion parallel to that is beyond admirable. Subscribed! EDIT: doing pediatric anesthesia so independently while being a surgery resident is another next level for me coming from a different training system. EDIT EDIT: Just saw you are also a doctor of dental medicine. I am in awe. How??? :D

I have health issues and kind of fast anyway due to gastroparesis. And, just something random….I love your turquoise chair / stool while you’re showing your cup of tea. It’s gorgeous.

I’ve had two surgeries one when I was about 9 and one recently in October as a 18yr old at the children’s hospital Los Angeles and it was probably the best experience anyone can have considering the circumstances no one really likes surgery but all the nurses and the anesthesiologists were so nice and good at explaining everything to me But I was kinda bummed they didn’t tell me to count backwards I was fully awake for about two minutes or so just laying on the table with the oxygen mask on waiting to go to sleep lol it was kinda funny and awkward they were all moving around doing stuff and I was just waiting for sleep to take over like okay well 😂😂

I dont want to sound mad, anyway from a logical point of view: Doing surgery while beeing sleep-deprived is not a good way to operate right? You will function and operate way better if you just slept 8 hours instead of 2 hours for instance. This is an issue, which significantly worsens the safety and the course of the operation.. Would like to hear your feedback on that. Stay healthy!

@nami3663 3 жыл бұрын

Samee!!! I wake up so hungry in the morning that I wait till AFTER breakfast to brush my teeth because I feel I'll starve to death otherwise. I remember hearing about Muslim college football players who train in the sweltering heat even playing entire games while fasting which is crazy. They cant even drink water which is extra shocking because Ive also met some people from other faiths who fast but it's only for part of the day and they can drink water. I know the jewish fast with no water for yom kappur but it's only for one day which i feel I can power through with lots of naps & very minimal functioning haha but how do you do that for an entire month lol

@KayColeLynn 3 жыл бұрын

I think it definitely depends on the person. I can get up at 5, eat a bagel and then not really want lunch 5-6 hours later when I have to take my lunch brake. I’ll make myself eat a snacky lunch just to have something in me for the rest of my shift, but even then I don’t really go home and want food. I honestly think I could probably get away with skipping lunch if I wanted to and for the most part be fine.

Tho one is horizontal and the other vertical, they are still praying in the same direction, toward Mecca. They just lay them like that so that multiple people can use them together. If you place it horizontally, you can fit more people. | or = . .. The man leading the prayer, maybe her father, would stand on the one place vertically, while she and another woman would use the horizontal one to pray together. In prayer, people must stand close to each other, hence they are using one prayer rug.
