thanks doc... as I said. I am playing smarter this year and will set up verything to have a plan B in case I dont match again. Also I hope my new boss will help me more than what my old boss did ( and don't get me wrong, my old boss helped a lot) But if worse comes to worse and I dont match, I think I can still survive like applicant 09 says, there is more to life than matching grin I hope that we all get drunk on next march grin

CONGRATS ANAgrin

  #358

You are a great mom , great person and great doc.God bless you and your familynodnod
I am really happy for you.
enjoy, your prayers were answered.

  #359

ANA!!!!!!!! You see - God had this all figured out ahead of time - he just wanted to give you another year with your kids before sending you out into the real world. Now you can really enjoy the year, knowing you have a signed contract and nothing pending. This is very good news. IM is such a huge field, with so many subspecialties, that I have no doubt you will find something you love.

I am very happy for you and wish you the best of luck.

Hey Ana I am so happy for you.
sometimes God allows things to go a certain way so that he does not share the Glory of what he has done with any one
This has made my day
Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Ana,

I've been a silent reader to this forum for almost a year now, I applied for last year , and could not get any position, I was outraged just like you and then very very sad, but then I felt like there is a thing waiting for me at the end, and GOD is not going to leave me alone in my darkness, and I am still hopeing for something to come, your success is a light for me, God bless your heart, you made me believe that a good thing is going to happen to me too.

Congrats big time,


  #364

Dear all...
Thanks for your wonderful words... as you can imagine, I have been running up and down to put everything together before I start... God has been merciful to me and I have no words tp paise Him and thank Him for this miracle.
Power... It is OK.. you will find somethin, last year the wife of a good frien found something in august and not only that... it was preliminary... she didn't match again this year, and guess what? she just signed her second year contract because there was a last minute opening.... So keep hope, up and your eyes open...

To my favorite groop of moms ... WE HAVE THE POWER... God doesn't let us alone... because we are stewards of his creation... So keep the power we will all make it grin

I am getting virtually drunk, because I have no time to get really drunk but ... anyway.. this is too long now... thanks to all for you rsupport ... Arelete... Chiqui I love you girls...

  #365

We love you too... nod

  #367

Ok, I'm waiting! smiling face I'm so happy for you! You are such a giving person, I am sure you are a great clinician! (And I think I can't write you anything without an exclamation point at the end now!). grin

Takecare everyone....




  #369

smiling face hey Ana Congrats, thats a wonderful news. we all r very happy for u.

how did u find this position( if u want to share, just for an idea as we r on same boat) and as u said one of yr friend got some thing last yr in last minute opening. i mean do we have to call the program to find out whether they have any position. i have registered with findaresident.com but seems like its useless .

good luck for yr residency


  #370

Ummah... hi, well I think youwill not hear abourt positions in any website or by calling the programs.. what helps you in the offcycle positions are contacts, the people you met while you where doing observership, or some family member/ good friend that is in the program, can find out for you. even then, some show up in some websites (i.e. ACOG website) but they are sort of hidden and you have to know the page well to be able to find it.

I prey that you can find a spot too grin

  #371

Hey arlete

I guess you forgot after congratulating me for passing step 3 [wink] . Well, I got the results in late april [smiling face]

I hope your studies are going on well and I am sure you must be all ready for it .

Take care

Welcome to the club... we all have been through the tough phases of not feeling ready for the exam and been paralized by fear, but don't worry you have come home we will be your support and you will find the self confidence you need to take the exam by logging periodically and listening (reading actually) to other moms stories... we are here to help each other with tips and virtual arbor mists (right Arlete?) follow your heart and you we will all be hear next to you celebrating...
Take one day at the time, study as much as you can even if that means 2 hours when your 18 month old is taking her nap... and be sure that hard work pays off
We are all praying for you
