PA Payzant

Okay, I am sorry to do this, but I just wanted to spend a few minutes bragging about my cute husband. Right now he is doing his ER rotation which means he is on 12 hour shifts, sometimes all night long. He is so dedicated and never complains. He has been in school now for about 2 years and the longest break he has had was about 1 1/2 weeks. They don't get a summer break at all! He was an amazing student for the first year and a half, when they were doing book work. He was most of the time on the top of the class for test scores. Now, the coordinator actually sends him on rotations purposely to help the reputation of the school. (It is not that great at the moment! Some of the other students just aren't impressing anybody, I guess.) Right now, the doctors and PAs at the hospital just love Brandon because he is willing to just jump right in and do whatever. It also helps that he speaks fluent Spanish. He has doctors trying to steal him from other doctors because they need his interpreting skills. I just can't tell you how proud of him I am!!!! He has overcome so many things in his schooling! When we first met, he had a VERY hard time taking tests and it was reflected in his grades. He has worked SO hard to overcome that and now is at the top of his class. He very rarely complains about all the studying he has to do (hours and hours every day!!!). I am very, very grateful that I was lucky enough to win his heart!!! ;0)

Thanks for letting me indulge for just a moment!

What a sweet post!! I think our husbands need us to shout out their praises sometimes! What a hard worker :)

We've been impressed with your Brandon from day one. He is one dedicated guy and is going to go far. Partly because of his wit, good looks, and determination and mostly because he has you and 2
(3) little girls to back him up. You guys are great.

Brandon was always a hard worker and a go getter. He was also very outgoing. He is going to do great especially with that added bonus of speaking Spanish so well. Remember the garage sale when he would go out and speak to the Spanish people. I think it really surprised them, but they loved it.

Okay. You have no idea who I am but I just had to leave a comment on this one. I am Brandon's second cousin (or something like that). Would you please pass along to Brandon that he looks oh so handsome in his scrubs and a big hooray from me for all the work he is doing!

Glad my old bro, Brandon, is doing well. Now I'm just trying to figure out what happened to his hair! Please send him my best. Marc
