Darling Daughter---you amaze me. How do you keep going and going? Please take care of yourself...I know how well you take care of your patients. I am very proud of you dear girl. Love you! Not long and you will be here for a vacation. Can't wait!
WOW! I don't think I have ever seen you look so beautiful! It looks like those three days took its toll on you. Sorry you had such a horrible week ~ thank you so much for your love and concern with my 'small' dilema! You are THE best! Love you loads and loads!
You are such a wonderful, caring DOCTOR!!! I've never seen your hair wavy like that, in fact I didn't know you had natural wavy hair!!!
I hope you can get some much needed sleep.
Oh that makes me want to cry! You are the hardest worker I know and I admire you so much. I can't wait till it is over for you. Hope you have a great weekend with your friends.
I am sorry, being sleep deprived is the worst! I hope you can catch up. Good thing we know how pretty and stylish you look when you are all dressed up and ready for the day ;) Love you!
Are you kidding me!?!?! WOW! I would have looked so much worse, because there would have been puke dried and crusty all across my face and shirt. You amaze me!
Good job Megan, I know your sleep deprived feeling. You still look pretty, even feeling so exhausted. Sorry for the stressful three days!
That's something you see on ER or Gray's Anatomy! Crazy! I'd love to be a fly on the wall when you're doing stuff like that. It's crazy how you can cut open a body and dig around in there and everything turns out peachy!
Love the pic! It's about what I look like right now with our 4 girls. . . although they do put nail polish and eyeliner on me so I don't go to work a total wreck :) jk Jeremy
