Everything Was Fine Until....

Day 3 of Surgery, 11/10/2023. So that day was our 1st bedside teaching session in 5th year, with Mr H. Initially, it was not my turn. So I didn't prepare any case except studying whatever related to AAA & vascular thingy.  But unfortunately, Mr was not interested in vascular case. So he asked everyone if we have any other case?  From the 1st person until me (I was the last one btw), nobody had. They clerked all uro cases, & another friend of mine who was supposed to present on the day had a case of abdominal pain but suddenly the pt was not on his bed (nowhere to be found).  And there was a clueless me....  Raised my hand & said; "I have a case, I clerked this pt"  (the pt was there, a case of altered bowel habit) But I was really..... unprepared.  At that time.  I felt like crying.  But I just gave it a try. By only looking at my own clerking notes, I managed to present the history. Not much comment for that. I was grateful... at leas...
