December Post - A day at my mentorship

Yesterday at my mentorship (12/13/14), I did a lot of things, which is not usual. It was probably on of the most interesting days that I have had at the Loma Linda Animal Hospital. I helped the nurses with a lot of treatments of animals, including giving them injections and giving them IV fluids. I also helped the nurses to perform surgeries including one on a snake. I learned a lot today, including what happens to a dog when it contracts cancer and how to perform surgery on a eye of a snake. I hope to have more days that I do these types of things with the nurses and my mentor. I hope to learn more throughout my time at the Loma Linda Animal Hospital. Below I put pictures of the snake we performed surgery on and the Pomeranian I was giving 3cc of Nutrical vitamin to. You could read more about what I did under the link "Senior Project Hours."
