I really appreciate your vulnerability and honesty in this video. Things like this should definitely be discussed with anyone who wants to enter the field because it can help someone decide if this is what they want to do before they spend a lot of time and money in a program. I'm really grateful for this video because it shows the humanity of medical professionals because I know that you have to keep a brave face when doing exams, and to some that may seem like you don't care. We see your kind and caring heart, and I hope you stay strong! You are appreciated!
Thank you so much Amanda for listening, commenting, watching, supporting. It means a lot to get feedback from my videos. Yeah there’s definitely something about being strong during and then breaking down after the fact. I’m sure people aren’t alone in that aspect. I can only feel for the nurse who had to go through that. It was the first time he ever had to do something like that. 🥺 I felt like we were in it together, not only trying to help save her life but mourn the life in front of our eyes. There are medical staff who really do care! I cried every time
I thought of that mom and baby for a while afterwards. Thanks so much for everything! 🤍
This was very hard for me to film. I was in the most vulnerable state. And there’s so many things I wish I said but didn’t because of the thoughts in my head. I wanted to make sure I didn’t say the wrong thing but also say what I wanted to express.
Please be mindful when you watch this video & know I filmed it the intentions of helping you all through your journeys of becoming a Sonographer. This is for anyone who wants to feel what a true hard day is like, to know there are going to be hard days, and that you can get through them too. The medical field is hard, we are humans and not built to be numb to everything. But this is just one of my stories and I hope it resonates with you.
So good to express yourself 🤍
I think it’s extremely important to share the good and the bad. The reality of it all. A lot of people think our job is a piece of cake, when it is far far from that most of the time. You’re an amazing tech Geselle, and your patients are lucky to have you. ❤️
Thank you Candice 🥺🥺🥺 I agree with you! They have no idea what we deal with or go through. Yes our job is amazing but it comes with it’s fair share of hard days and sad nights. I appreciate you so much. Thank you for supporting and also being an amazing sonographer. 🥺💕💕💕
You are SO strong and amazing Geselle... I was always told that the best medical professionals are the ones that can actually empathize with their patients and don't see them as trouble, or "another scan". Our patients are people, we chose this career to help those people, because not everyone is able to withstand this sort of emotional strain on top of their everyday lives. You are a gift to ultrasound, and a gift to your workplace and please don't ever forget that. Though a patient is going through one of the most difficult times of their life, we can still make a difference in the way we treat them and just being there for them; listening to them. Everything you do for our community is very well appreciated
Thank you so much Michael, that means everything to me. Coming from you, means a lot! You’re someone I very much so look up to and appreciate soo much! You are so right and I couldn’t have said it any better. We truly do care for our patients. Humans. Someone’s mom, dad, sister, brother, son, daughter. You are also a gift to your patients and us all. I’m so proud of you and thankful for your support and friendship! 💚
GESELLE!!!! Don't make me cry!!! Awwww, it's definitely real! Thank you for sharing the reality of it all. It is unfortunately a part of life. So glad they had your sweet spirit by their side. That's always super helpful in those situations. Praying for you & those patients!
AMY
Ultrasound can be overwhelming some days.. Stay safe and stay focused 🙏
It really can be. Thank you for supporting and listening! Hope you have a happy December! ✨
Oh my gosh. So sorry you had a hard day. You are a great sonographer. Very compassionate. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Mischelle. I truly appreciate it. I wish my patients knew how much joy I get by being their sonographer and just lending an ear or help whenever I can.
I'm 44. Back in school. I work full-time and school full-time. I live in NY and attend Monroe College in the Bronx. Afraid of the SPI and I feel so old comparing to all these younger students 😕. Next semester I start echo I. Thank you for always posting.
@@mischellebalkissoon542 it’s okay, you’ll get through it!!! Keep working hard. And I appreciate the support knowing you’re watching 🥺🥲❤️
Thank you for sharing. Those of us who have witnessed similar situations, it's something you never, ever forget. Experiencing life and death, joy and sadness all in the same day, comes and goes in waves..it's very hard to keep a smile on your face to share w the next patient. Things will definitely shake you to your core and you brace yourself for the next one. I pray for you and all of us that we may continue with strength and never lose sight of the important things in life. Stay golden my fellow sonographer! Stay YOU! Your pts. are Blessed to have you, we are Blessed to have you!😇❤🙏
Thank you for listening and for all that you do, Rosie!
Thank You for showing this side of the field & showing your vulnerability. It is so important to show the reality of the field and that it is more than just easy baby scans. Our job is to be there for our patients through their difficult and hard moments, even if it is hard for us to witness. Hard days allow us to be grateful for good ones. We will get through the tough days. You patients are very lucky to have you care for them girl!
Aww, Alex. Thank you so much for listening and loving on the video. I appreciate it so much, I honestly didn't know what the reaction would be to the video. I definitely resonate with my patients and feel for them. You're so right about hard days. You are amazing!!! Can't wait to see you rock it in the field!
Thank you so much for sharing this downside of being a RDMS and what sort uncomfortable assignments. We might have to resolve in the field that might take away our interest in the job as well as high-spirit as we’re enjoying our work.
You’re an amazing and incredible role model for us upcoming dms students. This demonstration is a signature on how to handle incidents like those and try to maintain our sanity in the midst of those difficult situations. We appreciate you so much sono sister, we are here to support you. As, you are supporting us as well.
Continue to thrive and stay positive. Many blessings and love to you :).
Thank you so much for listening and being here to support me! You are so right, there's a lot people don't know we go through. You are so kind to say all of that. I appreciate you more than you'll ever know! Stay safe and happy holidays!
Thank you for being so transparent with our field. There are days where it’s super difficult coming into work (especially during these times), but I can tell you care so much for the job and the patients you care for…continue to let that passion be your drive! I’m not a sonographer, but still within imaging…I’m currently in x-ray (5 years strong, haha), but soon to be mammo tech! I live in Vegas, too! Subbing to your channel ☺️
Aw, thank you Jai! Definitely lots of hard days for sure. I appreciate you listening and watching and supporting. Thanks for all you do!!! I am so in awe of all the patients you guys do. Y'all are hard workers that's for sure! Thanks for all that YOU do!!! Appreciate the love!
Thank you for sharing geselle! We really do have very hard days that make our careers so overwhelming! Im sorry you had to go though that experience, like you said you never really think it can happen to you, until it actually happens! I am sure that patient was so grateful to have you as her sonographer that day!
Thank you so much for listening and supporting me through this, beautiful! Yeah it’s so true, it’s so different when it happens to you personally. All I wanted was for her to feel okay. 🥺 I appreciate you so much!! I hope you are doing well. 💕
Geselle, Thank You so much for sharing this. You are so strong and the stories are indeed heart breaking. Made me cry and I know that when I start clinical and eventually work, I will encounter similar situations. I hope I have fortitude and humility to deal with them as you have. Stay Strong. Sending Love and Hugs :-)
Aww, Raveena, thank you so much for listening. It just means you will be an amazing person to someone in the future. Empathy really does go a long way. I appreciate you so much!
Geselle you are an amazing hardworking sonographer.💖 You are an inspiration for many including myself. Thank you for always showing the human , cool, fun, sad & the hard sides the life of sonographers. 😘🙏🏼
Awwww, Genesis. You are amazing. Thank you for your support. I know you care for your patients as well. Keep up the amazing work in clinical!
Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable and honest with us about it
You’re amazing and it sounds like you handled it the best you could
Aaaawww thank you JayLaa, I did what I could!! Definitely was shocked. But still did what I hoped would be best and comforting for her. I appreciate you!💞
you are so strong❤️❤️ I thought about being a sonographer but I’m way too sensitive & emotional for this😅
aww, thank you little apricot
Thank you for being soo transparent about our field, we definitely have tough days. But it’s having feelings that makes us better Sonographers.
I recently had a lady who was having an active miscarriage blood splattered onto the floor, the DR canceled the exam! but I can never look at that room the same 😩🥺😭
Thank you so much for listening Linda!! It really does. We’re human & have feelings and it’s okay to have those feelings. Oh man I’m sure that was tough too. I hope you know you’re amazing!!! 🤍✨
Thank you for sharing, Geselle. I look up to you so much and your vulnerability is something I admire. 💕
Thank you Lauren 😘 your support is everything! 🤍 I hope you feel better soon!!!
We love you and we all want you to stay strong
Aw
This is so sad 😔 I'm lost for words. I hope you are ok neighbor. Seeing something like that is not easy.
Thank you neighbor. Just you being here is enough, I appreciate you.
Thank you for sharing this. I feel as if a lot of people think that sonographers have an easy job. And that’s not at all the case. Thank you for being vulnerable with us ❤️
Thank you for listening Maya 💕 I truly appreciate it. Everyone who isn’t in the field thinks it’s easy. And it is definitely far from it.
Big warm hugs for you ❤ That is very sad to hear and I hope you have some good support at home.
Thank you for the hugs. 😢😢😢 I do!! My coworker that night hugged me through the tears. I also remember telling my boyfriend and he asked if there was anything I needed. I said no, just want to be sad for right now. He hugged me for a while when he saw me. And that was all I needed. Just needed time to process what happened. Appreciate you for listening! 💕
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Geselle. I know this must have been so hard for you to film but I appreciate your candidness and vulnerability. It is so important to share the good and hard times in this field and you did so with compassion and empathy. 💜
Thank you for taking the time to listen, Megan. Means so much. I definitely am a cry baby so it took all of me to not cry during this video. I appreciate you for recognizing me. Your support is everything. I hope you have a wonderful December. 🤍
Thank you so very much for having such a big heart.
I appreciate you watching. It means a lot.
This was such an honest video, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for listening, friend! Happy holidays!

Thank you so much for listening, Clarissa
How heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing.
It definitely was. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to listen to my story. 💕
I used to thing seeing miscarriages would not affect me too much... then i got like 5+ in a row. anytime i was scanning them through the ER they were either abortion in progress or nothing in the gest sac at like 9 ish weeks
they can get pretty hard but it is very common for us to see.
Aww ☹️ thank you for sharing

damnnnnnn wow thats sooo sad ):
it really was :/
Hi Sis I have a question
Plz tell me importance of physiology in Sonography.
And why we study physiology in Sonography
Plz give me answer today
I really need it 😔😔
I'll be very thankful to you
Hi! It’s important to understand the fundamentals of anatomy/ physiology so we can know what exactly is going on in the body- why we’re doing ultrasounds- we need to think more clinically in this field and not just scan to scan, especially when it’s diagnostic imaging.
@@lolgeselleok g
Thanks alot 😊
