Loving life

Well, Thomas is 2 weeks into the semester already (man time flies!) and I am 1 week into my internship (1/8 done). We are both enjoying it- me more so than him I think. But that is because when I get done with my 8 hour day, I can nap and go to Zumba every night. He gets done with his 8 hour day and has about 4 hours of homework to do. But he is doing well!

Thomas' headaches were because of his high blood pressure (which I've been saying since the beginning, but the doctor told use multiple times not to worry about it that it was definitely not the cause). Finally after 6 months they listened to us and put him on high blood pressure medication, and he is doing much better. We seem to have bad luck with doctors...

I love my internship- I'm working at a skilled nursing facility in American Fork. We also go to Timpanogos hospital when they call us, and do some home health visits. Its so much fun working with all the patients, and the PT/OT/ST (physical, occupational and speech therapy) team is so great! Everyone is on the same page and helping each other out, and we did group therapy with 17 clients yesterday, doing PT/OT/ST for 2 hours total. It was really fun, and the patients had a great time. I loved it. And I'm getting a ton of hours to count towards graduation, so that is great!

I take the praxis next week- one week from this very minute I will just be finishing. CRAZY! I definitely need to study. Which, is where I'm off to right now...
