My day in the OR...

Today I got the chance to shadow Jimmy Shaha in the operating room! He is one of the counselors in the branch presidency and an orthopedic surgeon for the Army. I loved being in the OR! It was such a cool experience! He had four surgeries scheduled that day. There was a lateral ankle ligament reconstruction, an ACL, a knee scope, and a shoulder scope. I was kind of nervous about maybe being a little queasy but I wasn't at all. I spent so much time at BYU working with athletes post-operation and it was so cool to see the other side!
