I arrived in Utah on-time, and waited and waited and waited for my luggage to come off of the carousel however to no avail. It is now 11:15 and I head straight for the Delta luggage customer service counter only to be told that my suitcase was placed on the flight after mine and would arrive at 1:00PM. I was distraught and angry to say the least as I had arrived at LAX in plenty of time to check my bag. After a heated conversation with the agent and being threatened to have security escort me out, I was left with few choices. Kenzie had kindly driven down from Ogden to pick me up, but I had to send her back home to finish helping set up for the party. I headed off to the nearest car rental counter to get a car and then off to Gateway Mall to shop away my frustration find something to wear should my bag stay MIA. Part of the frustration of the missing bag included a priceless baseball signed by former Dodger players that Todd had gotten for his Dad's birthday...silly me for checking anything of value! Back to the airport and finally my bag appears at 1:45PM. I frantically drive as quickly as I dare to Ogden and ready myself in about 10 minutes flat as the party has already started and I have missed the great surprise of Grandma's arrival. </div><div><br /></div><div>As I reach the pavilion, Grandma's back was to me and she was busy talking to other party-goers. Cannon tugs on shirt to get her attention and tells her someone wants to say hi....ME! I had called Grandma earlier that day as I was stranded at the airport waiting for my luggage and had a long conversation about LA weather and how work had been that morning and how sad I was that I had an emergency case that afternoon instead of being able to spend the day with Todd. Oops, guess I was lying about my whereabouts!!!</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline;

I t seems like just yesterday that we were sharing our first kiss by the WHS tennis courts during a Halloween stomp as sophomores in high school! What absolute utter joy that you have brought into my life...more that I could have ever dreamed possible! Heavenly Father has truly blessed me with the most amazing and wonderful husband imaginable and I would be utterly lost without you! You sacrifice so much on my behalf...and I know that it is not equally returned! You never fail to provide for my needs whatever they may be. You go out of your way to cook, clean, do errands, grocery shop and ensure that the laundry is always done despite how busy you are. You carry me to bed when I am absolutely too exhausted to walk the short distance from the couch to bedroom, never forgetting to get my alarm set for the next morning. You allow me to stay in bed and answer intern and resident endless pages and phone calls all through the night even though you may be on call the next day. You are loving, kind, thoughtful, supportive, a worthy priesthood holder and exercise that power within our home, and despite how tired or stressed you may be feeling, you never fail to bring a smile to my face when all I want to do is cry...and if I do cry, your supportive shoulder and listening ear are always there! How blessed I am to be your wife. If asked to make a list of the qualities I hoped and looked for in a husband, my best list would have fallen very short of the man that you are. I love and adore you more than I ever imagined possible!

He sacrifices so much and works so very hard to provide for our family! Thank you for providing for our most recent vacation to Hawaii...oh that time and those memories are priceless! Thank you for your testimony and true love of the gospel and the way you honor your priesthood and have always blessed our home! You are always able to bring a smile to my face with your quick wit and humor! I appreciate more than you know your sympathy and understanding when I am frustrated with medicine!

Your lasting influence on us all is immeasurble!</div><div><br />I would like to take advantage of this special day to honor my precious Mother and Grandmother. How blessed I am to have these two fabulous women in my life!!!<br />My mother's example of service, unconditional love and kindness know no end. Her support is endless...she has always made me believe that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to and never let me give up even when things were tough! I treasure my phone calls with her and I drive to and from the hospital. Everyone in her presence is made to feel of their importance to her! She is loved and adored by all those who come in contact with her more than she will ever know! Thank you for being the absolutely best wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend and giving us all something to emulate. </div><div><br />My Grandmother is truly one of my most treasured friends! She is always able to make me smile and laugh even when all I may want to do is cry. How I love that regardless of where we may be in Ogden, without fail we will see someone she knows and stop to talk. There is not a bad thing that anyone can say about this remarkable woman. She is the ultimate example of love, kindness, service to others, hard work and sacrifice. She has a love for the temple that permeates to all of her children and grandchildren.<br /></div><div>I can only become half of the woman that my mother and grandmother are, than I will have succeeded in something in this life.<br /></div><div>And to my dear sisters who are mothers...thank you for sharing your children with me! How I love all of them more than you can imagine! I admire you and the amazing mothers you are!

The more we talked, the more things came to mind that I truly don't want to forget...after all, some days it is only these funny experiences that keep you from breaking down and crying. So, I have decided that my blog will help serve as a journal for me to remember these times...<div><br /></div><div>---ME to the patient in the ER on my very first day of internship: hello Mr. ---, I am Dr. Grunander. What brings you to the hospital today?</div><div><br /></div><div>Patient: ok, really. I want a doctor.</div><div><br /></div><div>ME: sir, I am your doctor. What is bother you?</div><div><br /></div><div>Patient: no, really. I want a real doctor....</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>---ME: Intern, please go and consent Mr. --- for his hernia repair and mark his leg on the side of the hernia.</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern to the patient: Mr. ---, I need you to sign the consent form for surgery.</div><div><br /></div><div>PATIENT: but I am not here for surgery.</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern: Yes, you are having hernia surgery.</div><div><br /></div><div>PATIENT: but I don't have a hernia</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern: Yes, you have a groin hernia and are having surgery today...hey, why are you eating breakfast, you are having surgery today.</div><div><br /></div><div>PATIENT: but I have pneumonia, I DON'T HAVE A HERNIA</div><div><br /></div><div>ME to the Intern (after 20 minutes have gone by): What took you so long???</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern: The patient forgot that they had a hernia and were having surgery, kept insisting they had pneumonia. It took a little convincing, but the patient signed the consent form and I marked the leg. Funny though, I remember it being a big hernia and this one wasn't very big...come to think of it, this guy is African-American....</div><div><br /></div><div>ME: our patient is Hispanic....who did you convince to have surgery.....that is not the right patient....he actually signed the consent form....GO BACK, TELL THIS PATIENT THEY CAN EAT AND FOR THE LOVE PLEASE FIND OUR PATIENT!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>---Nurse (with a strong accent): Doctor Megan, Doctor Megan your patient is not breathing, patient not breathing...</div><div><br /></div><div>ME: What??? What??? CALL A CODE BLUE, GET THE CRASH CART, I AM COMING!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Nurse: Oh Dr. Megan, don't worry, patient already dead.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>---ME to the intern: Please consent the family of the patient in bed #2 for a trach and PEG</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern (with strong accent): what is this trach and PEG that you speak of?</div><div><br /></div><div>ME: ok, seriously, get consent for trach and PEG</div><div><br /></div><div>Intern: can you spell that? What procedure is this? What? What? I don't understand.</div><div><br /></div><div>ME: ok, now time for someone that can speak English...get someone else.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>------ME to trauma patient: hello sir, I am Dr. Grunander. I am the trauma surgeon on call. So you have been stabbed in the belly. Were you stabbed anywhere else?</div><div><br /></div><div>Trauma patient to ME: what, you are my doctor? How old are you?</div><div><br /></div><div>My trauma patient in the next bed to my current patient: I know, she told me she was my doctor too but frankly I don't believe it....she looks like 14...</div><div><br /></div><div>ME to both of them: OK, thank you for the flattery but I am 29....and yes, I am your doctor so quit talking about me and let me take care of you!</div><div><br /></div><div>Sorry if this is not amusing to many of you...but there will be many more to come!</div><div><br /></div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAqeUKiVzdp-fyOC3hVN6-wmrOv-ROpbk4PAITX9gUWQg5cjaPWfnWl98e5n0kAjBANyvS9feVkZogkqY_YW89v3ly43O7JrIt_p6NUqJJ_mrDpqdze45d1b7r3YuuKvHMbmJSUBaPLJqf/s1600/rron215l.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAqeUKiVzdp-fyOC3hVN6-wmrOv-ROpbk4PAITX9gUWQg5cjaPWfnWl98e5n0kAjBANyvS9feVkZogkqY_YW89v3ly43O7JrIt_p6NUqJJ_mrDpqdze45d1b7r3YuuKvHMbmJSUBaPLJqf/s400/rron215l.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465015317378804722" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibfCFNLtReM0r6lYecRnMhbbCxNys1VLd_2A1zNRDHpoOldpMSjeEtvzeWo_XEPk-ypxa8SLmLbmBkCyxGpZKkey2Mou-Ek23tHqdd4RWhPSK9emWwgu64uqYn4tGCw5TQf5JEAIC7JBLS/s1600/laughter_best_medicine500pix.jpg" style="text-decoration: none;"><br /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div><br /></div></div></div>Todd and Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07508230854072001432noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172310438146225573.post-71617631083899004092010-03-20T19:52:00.001-07:002010-03-20T20:24:47.611-07:00Belated Happy Birthday to My Hubby!!!<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; ">Happy 32<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">nd</span> Birthday to my amazing husband!

Although the visit was short, I have come to realize how priceless that time spent with family is...although, Todd may argue that the inflated cost of our airline tickets did not equate to "priceless" memories! After spending Christmas day on trauma call, I arrived home without having slept in 34 hours only to quickly throw a travel bag together, shower and make our way to the airport. I easily slept the entire flight to Utah. Todd and I were met by Dad and we were able to join the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Wolthuis</span>-Herbert Christmas Eve party which had been delayed until December 26<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span> so that we could be there. Good food, fabulous company, the "Must Be Santa...aka Snotty Nose" song and the left-right game filled the evening.

He is the most loving, generous, smart, dedicated, witty, funny dad. How blessed we are as a family to have him. He is the hardest worker and never thinks of himself, always giving everything possible to those around him. He never fails to be able to make everyone in the room smile and laugh because of his quick wit. I treasure so much being able to talk with him about medicine and know he will always understand my fulfillment and frustration. He is continually sacrificing for his family, including allowing Mom to travel to visit all of us while he works. However much he will miss her while she is gone is secondary to what he feels his children need from our Mother's visit. I treasure the time that he is able to spend with us in California! I am so blessed to have a father who honors his priesthood and observe him use it in our home many times while growing up and still today. He was my constant traveling companion to watch Todd run for Weber State which we both truly enjoyed...especially Todd since he was easier on him after a tough race than I was! I know Todd considers him a second father as well as a dear friend...and I couldn't ask for anything better!

However, I am going to jump on the bandwagon and document my hopes for the New Year....<br /><br />The Past Year:<br />--Completed a very difficult year of fellowship at Cedars-Sinai and subsequently passed my Surgical Critical Care boards. Many times throughout that year the thought of quitting more than crossed my mind. However, how grateful I am for the lessons learned (medical and not) and finished what I had committed to do. <br />--Celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary...oh how blessed I am to be married to the love of my life and best friend!<br />--Able to spend time with family and friends, including numerous trips to Utah, visitors to California, and a fabulous trip to Mexico with the hubby.<br />--Have the ending of residency even more in sight as Todd and I have starting meeting with groups to discuss job opportunites and Todd starting the process of applying for fellowship.<br /><br />The Upcoming Year:<br />--GET PREGNANT!!! <br />--Todd will match into a fellowship<br />--Todd and I will become chief residents<br />--trip to Hawaii in June with the entire Wolthuis clan<br />--sign a contract for a job<br />--be a better missionary and example to those that I work with<br />--look for opportunities to serve those around me<br />--lead a more Christ-like lifeTodd and Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07508230854072001432noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172310438146225573.post-43787736438105525392009-11-25T00:00:00.000-08:002009-11-25T00:00:02.740-08:00An Attitude of Gratitude<p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZBCC5WhPArW0zKQlqx9J6mTSTLNJhiau3k0jpJt2R6TH-R_ppdcEnBpM33-gyorUD2FvZVaxClQ3Egr9IH9WyhCYnr1Yl7II9GGh9pKrO2zTeudP-7EKMfvyg3NiCIQOVM2eEs0pg52p1/s1600/thankful2.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 92px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407758131456241554" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZBCC5WhPArW0zKQlqx9J6mTSTLNJhiau3k0jpJt2R6TH-R_ppdcEnBpM33-gyorUD2FvZVaxClQ3Egr9IH9WyhCYnr1Yl7II9GGh9pKrO2zTeudP-7EKMfvyg3NiCIQOVM2eEs0pg52p1/s400/thankful2.jpg" /></a></p><br /><br />To borrow from the words our beloved President Monson:<br /><br /><em>Accentuate the Positive</em><br /><em>Eliminate the Negative</em><br /><em>Latch on to the affirmative</em><br /><em>Don't mess with Mr In-Between.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>Good advice then, good advice now. This is a wonderful time to be living here on earth. Our opportunities are limitless. While there are some things wrong in the world today, there are many things right, such as teachers who teach, ministers who minister, marriages that work, parents who sacrifice, and friends who help.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>We can lift ourselves, and others as well, when we refuse to remain in the realm of negative though and cultivate within our hearts an attitude of gratitude. If ingratitude may be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the most noble of virtues.</em><br /><br /><br />As life is what it is, I ofter find myself bemoaning my life and my current circumstance. However, during this season of Thanksgiving I reflect on the countless things that I have to be thankful for.<br /><br /><strong>I am grateful for my husband: </strong>All of those who know Todd are able to appreciate the wonderful man that he is. I thank my Heavenly Father daily for blessing my life with his love and companionship!<br /><br /><strong>I am grateful for my family: </strong>I truly have the most fabulous and loving family! How thankful I am to have been born to the parents I have and for my siblings and extended family...I couldn't ask for better!!!<br /><br /><strong>I am thankful for the gospel:</strong> As I interact daily with people who are not blessed with the gospel in their lives, I feel guilty for not sharing more openly this most precious gift that I have. I am grateful that so many people are intrigued by "Mormons" and feel so comfortable in asking me about my beliefs and this gospel. I pray that I may be the example that helps lead someone to investigating and accepting the gospel one day as I know with all of my heart that it is true!!!<br /><br /><strong>I am thankful for the opportunity to be a doctor: </strong>More days than not, I am often rather disheartened and unhappy with my career for a number of different reasons. I am more tired that words can express and often feel unappreciated by the people I work for and those I take care of. However, I think back on the day that I opened my acceptance letter to the University of Utah School of Medicine feeling that it was one of the happiest days of my life. I am grateful for all those who made it possible for me to attain my education and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity I have to change people's lives and help them many in their greatest time of need. <br /><br /><strong>I am grateful for my temporal blessings: </strong>Although I often complain to Todd that I am anxious to live in a house, how selfish I am for these feelings. I am grateful for the wonderful roof I have over my head, the food in my fridge, and the car I have to drive. We are blessed with the ability to go out to dinner, to go shopping, to go to movies and sporting events, and to fly home to Utah frequently. In a time of recession, how grateful I am for my job and a husband who works so hard to support us.<br /><br /><strong>I am grateful for good friends: </strong>As excited as I am at the prospect of moving to Utah when residency is completed, I do feel sorrow at the dear friends that we will leave here in California. Todd and I are blessed with many wonderful friends from both church and work that we love and appreciate.<br /><br />This list could go on and on, as it is truly endless. How thankful and grateful I am for all of my blessings!!! I hope that I can adopt an unwavering "Attitude of Gratitude" and recognize my blessings, big and small, daily.Todd and Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07508230854072001432noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172310438146225573.post-4854973814759683562009-11-24T09:07:00.000-08:002009-11-24T11:36:31.271-08:00Cancun---A week in PARADISE!!!Todd and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary albeit a little belated in Cancun, Mexico this last October.

I t seems like just yesterday that we were sharing our first kiss by the WHS tennis courts during a Halloween stomp! What absolute utter joy that you have brought into my life...more that I could have ever dreamed possible! Heavenly Father has truly blessed me with the most amazing and wonderful husband imaginable and I would be utterly lost without you! You sacrifice so much on my behalf...and I know that it is not equally returned! You never fail to provide for my needs whatever they may be. You go out of your way to cook, clean, do errands, grocery shop and ensure that the laundry is always done despite how busy you are. You carry me to bed when I am absolutely too exhausted to walk the short distance from the couch to bedroom, never forgetting to get my alarm set for the next morning. You allow me to stay in bed and answer intern and resident endless pages and phone calls all through the night even though you may be on call the next day. You are loving, kind, thoughtful, supportive, a worthy priesthood holder and exercise that power within our home, and despite how tired or stressed you may be feeling, you never fail to bring a smile to my face when all I want to do is cry...and if I do cry, your supportive shoulder and listening ear are always there! How blessed I am to be your wife. If asked to make a list of the qualities I hoped and looked for in a husband, my best list would have fallen very short of the man that you are. I love and adore you more than I ever imagined possible! You are the love of my life..I can't wait to embark upon the next 10 years of our marriage!</p>Todd and Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07508230854072001432noreply@blogger.com9
