Trey - Clinical Fellow

Last July Trey started his two-year minimally invasive surgical fellowship. This past year was completely devoted to research. He spent lots of time traveling to present at surgical conferences all over the United States and the world. If he was in town though he took no call which meant most nights and weekends he was home with us.

Then this year happened. Two weeks ago he started on his clinical year of fellowship which is devoted to operating and being in the hospital. As he describes it, it is like being an intern again. That means we are back to having very little time together. It is certainly difficult for all of us but it makes us enjoy the time together that much more.

The kids and I had not seen him in several days so we snuck a little time together at the hospital last weekend. :-)

Besides, where else can you use a neck brace as a mask...

...and practice your surgical skills?! ;-)

We are keeping our eyes focused on the end of training and being able to look back on all of the adventures, both good and not so good, we experienced together! :-)
