I joined this forum in 2006, but as a busy working lady, I did not find the time to be active on the boards. I am hoping that a few more years into this, and now as a busy mother, I may find some more time (and a few more reasons) to become more active on the site.
My DH is an emergency PGY2 near Detroit, MI. That puts us closer to family but further from friends and other loved ones. We were married in the summer before he began med-school so we have made this journey together - from the MCATs (and before) to now looking at places to apply for "real jobs". I became a mother in his intern year and our darling daughter is about to turn ONE (AH! where does the time go!!). We are half-way through residency and looking forward to the next step - and an ending to our "temporary poverty" (as I like to call it).
I often feel like I am saying to people, "...but that's not how it works in our house..." or "...we just can't do it that way..." because of my DH's crazy hours and preoccupations. I think that I need more support form other moms/wives who are going through the same thing. I look forward to getting to know you all better.
Are there other people out there from my area? There are TONS of MD and DO training hospitals in the area (Beaumont, UM, DMC, Henry Ford, POH, etc., etc.) and I would love to get to know more people around here.
