I was able to learn the many types of medical procedures, concerns and terminology. While working at the hospital I decided to take a medical terminology course offered by the hospital and passed with flying colors. My sister in law was very healthy, trying to lose weight and was the life of the party passed out at home one morning and passed that evening. The doctors could not explain why this happened, but I was curious. I asked my brother questions but he barely had any answers. Therefore I said God needed her more than us. Even though I worked in a hospital I should have known about the different forms but it really didn’t affect me until my Dad was diagnosed with the illness.
I’m almost like a kid looking at all the candy in the aisle available for me to eat. Whenever I hear a new medical term or condition I’m on the internet looking up the information. I guess I want to verify what I was told was correct and I want to know how the condition came about and how it is possibly cured. I always feel my responsibility in life is taking care of them and I want to be around for them every minute that I can spare. I wasn’t around much for her because she lived in a different state. My Dad’s illness had such an effect on me that I wanted to keep learning more about the medical industry. Working medical transcription jobs will also allow me to work while the family is away at school/work and I can work in the evening or night hours while they are asleep.
