Today Geoff starts the week of trainings for his residency program. Then he will actually be on his first shift next week. It’s hard for me to believe that this next step in the journey that is medicine is here. We’ve worked so hard to get here. Now it’s time to roll up our sleeves and get started.
When I asked Geoff how he was feeling yesterday, he said he was nervous. But I think anyone would be on their first day or at the beginning. I know I certainly would be. I hope he’s also excited as this is what he’s been working so hard for!!
Knowing my husband, there is a lot going through his head. I hope he knows he has the skills and if not, he will learn them. I hope he knows that he is doing the right thing, even when it feels wrong. I hope he knows that he is supported and loved by me and his parents. I hope he shows himself grace. I hope his passion is ignited and never dies.
