Hi Dr.Rachel! Hope you doing great Today I graduated from medical school ranking number 1 on my batch. It was definitely mentally and emotionally draining journey, I grew up to become a very different version of myself “in a good ways” med school was definitely more than knowledge, it made me thrive as a person. You and me started med school at the same year, yet it took me 5 years to graduate unlike you due to curriculum difference from the US. So all the way from the beginning till today you been a big part of my journey, seeing someone going through same struggles I go through helped me a lot to push through, you open up w us when you talk about difficulties you go through during studying or working or anything related to medicine and I’m telling you that really help us and i appreciate it. Now I’m looking forward for the future and ofc your vids will be a strong motivation so keep it up and I pray you achieve success.

Personally recommend something with urea in it for hand lotion if your skin is super dry! My hands were okay prior to rotations but they eventually got so dry that they would turn red after using hand sanitizers from the alcohol drying it out so my preceptor was like girl you need something with urea in your lotion 😂
