New Update!
So....I am very behind in updating our journey here in Baltimore. The last update was of the snow, and well it is definitely past the snow season! Ha!
As I have always blogged, Dusty and I are continuing to flow in the blessings of God! Although being away from home doesn't get necessarily easier, God ALWAYS provides amazing friends, connections, and times together while away! I don't know how to explain how He provides, but He does! We believe more than ever that our God is Jehovah-Jireh, God our Provider! He increases our faith when we rely on Him and trust, against all odds, that He will prepare a way, that He will open doors, that even when our ways don't plan out, His is always better!
I realize that trying to explain every step in Dusty's School can be confusing, but realize that in this time of clinical rotations, it is possible for them to send you all over the nation to complete the different required rotations (ex. Chicago, Orlands, New York, Baltimore, etc.). There are 6 Core Rotations that have to be set up with the school. Then there are 7 electives that Dusty gets to choose of his own desire, that can be completed wherever he likes as long as it is a teaching hospital. We have been beyond blessed to be kept here in Baltimore for 4 of the 6 core rotations. (In between, Dusty has been allowed to work on elective rotations) The other two are not offered here and we will figure that out as we go. Dusty started here in January in Internal Medicine. From there, he completed and Infectious Disease Elective. Then he completed an OB/GYN rotation. After that was completed was where we got a little nervous of what was next. They offered to send us to Orlando once and Chicago once. We declined while praying another rotation would open up soon. ( The sooner we complete the cores, the sooner we come home). We prayed for the Surgery Core Rotation to open up because it is a 3 month rotation and seems to be the most demanding of them all. Just as Dusty was finishing OB/GYN, he got a call from his advisor. She didn't understand how this could happen, but a last minute spot opened up for a Surgery Rotation here in Baltimore. And guess who got to fill the spot....! Amazing provision!
Dusty is still currently in his Surgery Rotation, and yes, it is very demanding. He works abnormal long shifts that start at 5:00 in the morning and is on 24 hour call at least once a week. From here, he will complete a Cardiology and Radiology elective. In December he will begin his Psychiatry Core Rotation. That is all we have planned so far.
I am sorry for rambling, but maybe that is a little clearer picture of what is going on in regard to Dusty's school. I will post random pictures of our time here, our family visiting, and our new friends we have met!
