      Hi Rachel! I was wondering if you still go over your old Anki cards (from ms1 and 2) regularly or at all and how do you plan to incorporate the new upcoming cards to your study routine? Thanks!

    You inspired me to want to become a doctor. I've always wanted to, but then something happened and I ended up taking commerce. Then, I found your channel and I saw your life and it truly motivated me, and I'm taking up medicine. I'm not kidding, you are one of my biggest mentors in a way and are such a huge part of my journey and I'm so thankful to you and grateful for you. Love you so much❤️

    Love watching your videos! I am a new graduate nurse in the CVICU and enjoy documenting what it was like going through nursing school, taking the NCLEX boards, and being a new grad. I love watching other people's journeys in the other parts of healthcare. It's especially fun to see you take and pass your boards exams and then get to see videos like this where you are finally getting to do the skills and have the experiences you have waited so long to do, especially during the pandemic. Great content!

It’s so weird but like I actually am not a medical student, I quickly realized that medicine was not for me in high school. But I love watching you and your vlogs!! I continued watching because on how passionate you are. And as I enter my last semester of community college, I just hope that one day I get to be as passionate towards something like you are to medicine. It is so motivating to see how you love it. And medicine is interesting so I feel like you learn and I feel like I learn at the same time😂😂. Your perspective and just life is genuinely motivating for me, so thank you:) keep doing what you do. I send you strength and guidance, love and light amiga❤️

    It’s fascinating watching your experiences. I was on the other end (ie the patient) of a laparoscopic gall bladder removal a couple of years ago. About 25 years ago I had a right salpingo oophorectomy and afterwards it looked as if whoever had done the stitching had used a darning needle and carpet thread! 😀 Your stitching will be so much better, I know! One day at a time and take care of yourself.
