I'm a trauma surgeon in a level 4 trauma center at a hospital. I want my daughter to also be a surgeon. My mother was a concert pianist.
I am always looking for fun hobbies.
I found out whether or not my trauma patients from today, are stable and pulling through after the surgeries. That sounds so serious. It must be challenging to deal with all the emotions that go along with trauma. It is, but I enjoy the challenge. What do you enjoy doing?  I like to keep busy with hobbies.  My latest is trying to learn to paint. Oh wow that's amazing. I wish I could paint well. My mother loves the arts and is a very artistic person. I didn't get that gene unfortunately.  I am first starting by watching painting shows on tv and following along.  I bought some paint and an easel and am slowly getting somewhere. That's great. I like watching Bob Ross paint, even though I don't try to paint along with him. I find his show relaxing after a long day at work.  He is relaxing.  What type of art does your mother do? She is a concert pianist. She enjoys collecting art and has several recreated Rembrandt paintings. She has an eye for art. She is also an amazing home decorator. Her house looks like something out of a magazine.  Wow that is so neat!  I wish I could someday paint even 1/100 like Rembrandt.  I would love to visit her home. Sure! Next time you're in Chicago, give me a call. I can arrange a visit. Bring your art supplies! It will be fun.  That sounds great. Thank you!  I'd love to hear your mom play piano as well.  I have taken some lessons and enjoy the music.
