'Twas the Night Before Xmas (Osteopathic Medical Student Version)

[Kerosene Hat]

Questions of “So, you’re like a chiropractor?” from family members are generally my osteopathically-related Christmas “gift”.

Way too early but gonna bump this thread so the new DO students can enjoy

Remember to do your OMM in full PPE, 6 feet apart, and use The Force to achieve that HVLA

Solid bump costales!

It seems appropriate for me to post on here now that I have just finished my first semester in OMM (and hopefully passed it ).

Man SawBones has some talent.

Man 4 years went by fast...

Yeah, so 9 years... felt like an eternity, but probably because the last 2 easily felt like decade. Finally an attending though!

Hope you all had a good day with family!

'Twas the night before exams, in the world of DOs,
Osteopathic students, in their studying woes,
They scoured the forums, that network so bright,
Seeking guidance and wisdom, well into the night.

On Student Doctor Network, they earnestly sought,
Advice for rotations, the battles they fought,
With cases to study and patients to meet,
They turned to this haven for knowledge so sweet.

In threads about residencies, they'd keenly delve,
Hoping for insights that they could shelve,
Each question they posed, each answer they read,
Helped ease their worries and lessen their dread.

From preclinical stress to clinical rounds,
The forums were filled with informative sounds,
Encouragement flowed, shared stories and woes,
In this digital haven where camaraderie grows.

With clicks and with scrolls, they'd navigate through,
Past threads of success and struggles too,
For every challenge, a post could be found,
A comforting echo in that virtual ground.

Amidst pharmacology, anatomy's lore,
Supportive voices, they'd find even more,
For the journey they're on, the path they've chosen,
They found solace in words so unbroken.

'Twas the night before exams, but in this cybernetic fold,
Osteopathic students found a community to hold,
A place for advice, camaraderie, and cheer,
Student Doctor Network, a haven so dear.

So as they logged off, with relief in their sight,
Grateful for guidance, both day and night,
They'd close their laptops, their minds put to rest,
Thanks to a network where support was the best.
