Flag of United States Kenai, Alaska
Wednesday, October 29, 2008

Well, I'm home again. I finally am home. I nearly cried when I saw the mountains of Alaska again after seeing nothing but the flat terrain of the southwest of the US. My friends had a welcome back party for me and I was so very touched to see them gathered together last night. Thank you all! Especially thank you to Todd who picked me up from the airport and organized my homecoming! (God, I love the painting!) :-) This experience has easily changed my entire perception about medicine and it has made me want to be a paramedic now more than ever before.

When we were driving to my house last night we looked out and saw the Northern Lights had begun. It really did feel like Alaska was welcoming me back home. It's so good to be here - so good to be back home. Last night I slept in my own bed for the first time in 6 weeks. It felt so awesome!

Thanks to all of you who kept up with my blog and read my ramblings. I'll be making the rounds to see everyone very soon. I love and cherish you all! :)

Signing out for the last time in this blog,
Andy
