Decision

I made my decision on January 1, 2010. After months of agonizing, examining the decision from financial perspectives, career development perspectives, my own personal drive and desires, and the need to live somewhere sustaining (for a while), I decided to take a med-peds hospitalist position here in the US.

It's a 180 degree about-face from where I thought I was going to be that day I got on a plane to move back to America. I was certain I would be moving back to somewhere in Africa in the summer of 2010. I-Was-Certain. It'll be good to make some money to appease the student loan people. It will be good to spend some time growing as a physician. It will be good to spend some time with family (especially nieces, nephews, godkids and all the other kids). But it won't be long... Won't be long til I'm driving on the left side of the road, or taking off somewhere where I don't speak the language..
