Hello all -

I am leaving the MT business but have a set of Stedman's books for sale:

Stedman's Abbreviations, Acronyms & Symbols
" Organisms and Infectious Disease Words
" Dermatology and Immunology
" Orthopaedic and Rehab
" Medical and Surgical Equipment
" Ophthalmology

Also have AAMT Book of Style 2nd Edition (a little beat up but useful nonetheless)
Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) 2009

I am asking $75 for all books which is a great deal since I paid at least $35 individually for them. I will ship via the post office fixed rate parcels. I think they will fit in the medium or large box which is about $14 or $15, I think. Will let you know the final price including shipping once I know. Please PM with your address and if you can pay via PayPal, which is preferred.

Thanks

I got accepted into a fall 2010 occupational therapy masters program. It is a 2-1/2-year program including summers. I will graduate in 2013.

For the past year I have been knocking out pre-reqs including Human Anatomy, Anthropology, Sociology, and Technical Writing. Fortunately, having a BS in Biology knocked out quite a few pre-reqs in addition to a semester after college that included two psychology classes, Statistics, and Physics. Oh - did I mention the Advanced CPR certification, art class, taking the GRE and 150+ hours of OT shadowing just in order to apply? All while still working. Needless to say, after quitting a couple of months ago I have been doing nothing but lying out on my deck suntanning and reading when I'm not watching a ridiculous amount of DVDs/movies of yesteryear that I never saw. Life's been great but I imagine things kicking up quite a bit once school starts in August.

Thanks for asking, Gisele.

Life is too short to only do what you have to do, not what you want to do. Best wishes for the future.
