who'd a thought EOW would come in handy

as many of y'all know i have a deep seated dislike for some of the langauge in EOW1. what you might have gathered from our readings, however, is my utter delight at the high quality work EOW2 turned out to be. tonight, after an 8 hour day of hospice training i am preparing for tomorrow, our first real day of CPE. Since we started on Wednesday the Hensley-White family has dealt with the struggle of a seriously ill infant and the Nancy Scott found out her brother had passed away. What a crappy five days. So tonight I sit here tired and nervous but thankful for the words, "Be with us now, that we may know your presence in one another and rise up in joy to greet you." My hope is tomorrow and each day I might come to know God; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in my fellow CPE students, my residents, and my supervisor so that joy might fill my heart.
