Dear Future DR.

As I am not a medical person I use the exact words that you have used to do a little correction. May be other able medical people could come to your help. I am not a native english speaker. English is my second language. If you find any spelling errors pl. forgive me. I did not check the mecical dictionary for the terms you have used. (My wife is a former Matron of a Hospital). There is a medical dic. in our collection.

I felt humbled that I could help a Medical student in a little way. I like your attitude. You have humbled yourself by asking others. You will be a great DR. With best wishes. Bye.
