First Day of School.....kinda

Today I started my month long adventure at a clinic in Fort Worth. It is always interesting and nerve racking to start working at a new place. It feels like the first day of school, wandering around lost, hoping that someone will notice the absent look on your face and politely point you to the restroom.

How do you feel about feet? I can't say that i'm completely disgusted by them, but I'm not crazy about touching the feet of strangers, even if it is for the greater good of their health.
People with diabetes have many problems with foot care. They lose feeling in their feet, step on something, and it becomes infected without them noticing until they start smelling funk. This is not somthing that is particularly good on an empty stomach, or on a full stomach for that matter.

Anyway, so that is what I'm doing this month. I'm sure that this environment will provide many interesting stories.
