Petra It's a year now, still in a dark place Oh wow. I have read a few books on pathologists over the years and they always fascinate me. I couldn't do it myself though. I don't know how anyone could. *Much respect*

Lori Hi Cheryl! Pathology is fascinating! I work in a lab and my favorite part is hematology. I could look at slides all day! Where do you practice?
