Match Day!!!


What a day it was. One that we will never forget. All of the medical students with their families met in the auditorium of one of the buildings on campus. There were a few speakers from the medical school that told us how proud they were of us and all that we had accomplished. Mostly they were just trying to burn time until the magic hour of 12:00pm. At noon they sounded a bullhorn and everyone in the room opened their envelopes simultaneously (not only at Ohio State, but all around the country). So what did the letter say?

UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE--MEMPHIS!!!

It was not quite where we expected to end up, but we're excited. It was a day of much celebration with time to reflect on the accomplishments of the last four years.

Very exciting. There is a lot to be said for knowing what comes next. It was fun to see pics from your german family--it's nice to see that at least some people aren't aging. Max's photos are very sweet!!! Hope you are all doing well.
