Medically, our team was very active. Bruce is having a very good experience in Plastic Surgery and Maxillofacial. He is back into it again and loving it! Mark and Steve are really having a fun time passing gas and we ENTs are operating and teaching to our hearts content. This afternoon we did the first cadaver dissection sinus surgery and it was on HD TV! We will do the second tomorrow. In the OR, I am doing a lot of headache surgeries... one of my loves and I really enjoy teaching how to make headaches go away!!! Thursday, I will help a Pediatric Surgeon with a tracheoesophageal fistula. Lots of fun!
Tomorrow night, Begee and I will have supper with the President of BMDMI, and our plan is to consider ways to best help and get involved with this powerful mission work. Being with them is unbelievably humbling! Love to you all, David & Begee
