Ninth Meeting with Mentor

Date: April 27, 2011
Time Spent: 1 hour 30 minutes
Total Time: 15 hours 30 minutes

How am I Doing: I met with Pauline for the last time. We talked about the overall project and I asked her for suggestions that I can include in my presentation. I showed her my finalized essay and she read it over. I also presented one more time in front of her, but I didn't have my visial aid with me. She helped me with my speech and gave me tips about posture, speaking and habits while presenting. She wished me luck and we said our goodbyes.
Meeting with Pauline gave me a better understanding of life working with cancer patients. She gave me alot of information, and insight, and I plan to incorporate it into my speech. She has helped me a great deal and has also led me to realize the emotional struggles cancer. When she walked me through her department in the hospital, seeing the chairs and needles lined up in rows scared me. It made me realize that cancer patients have it hard and that they feel scared and initmidated all the time because that's how i felt walking through her ward.
