Day 6 of #40daysofthanks Today I’m happy because I am done with Pathology and moving on to Emergency and Critical Care. Positives so far- actual live, breathing animals AND I even get to bring the fluff 🐶

It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary. I have never felt more like I was supposed to do something, than I have with veterinary medicine. ❤🐾 #veterinarymedicine #vetmedworld #painfreerecovery #nursingcare #vetsnobiety #HeyDrAndy
