Good News!

Hello,

Thought I best come back and update with something positive as I've been a bit negative lately. I had a much better day at placement which it was quite a relief. I think having the morning out of the department was good and then having a short afternoon certainly helped. I was working with other radiographers today and got positive feedback so I felt a bit better about myself today and I think it was what I needed. If you hear negative things all the time it's hard not to lose your confidence and start to feel down. I think if I can have a few more good days I will perk up again. I'm determined to make the most of this week though as it's my last few days in x-ray before I'm rotated between CT, MRI, ultrasound and mammography for the last few weeks of this placement block and then it's back at uni for a time.

So onto the really good news.... today I heard back from one of the hospitals I wrote to last week about an elective placement and they are able to offer me a two week placement, so that cheered me up when I got home. It was the one I really wanted to get into, despite not holding out much hope so I'm extremely thankful and really looking forward to going.

Only a short post tonight you'll be pleased to know. I best get some sleep as I feel like I've still got some ground to make up so I best get a good night's sleep.

Night all x
