What specific area of medicine are you interested in? I am really into psychology and psychiatry. Pretty much how the brain works. I also love kids, so maybe stuff with them too.

I want to be a surgeon for sure. I'll probably go into pediatric surgery though because I'm good with kids. That's what I get when I have a 5 year old brother and a 7 year old sister!

A lot of baby/kids stuff! What are the thoughts of patient death/misdiagnosis? I get really close to people and am not sure how I would be able to handle it.

Dealing with the family and dealing with it yourself. I'm guessing the helping will outweigh the hurting but it's still hard to think about how you would adjust.
