is Susan Seo. She sent me a horrific text message last night asking

has any suggestions, please let me know.
I hope that everyone is OK, and though I know we are all worried about

Check www.aamc.org for updates about the school. Last time I checked,

Got here safely and have been watching more CNN than is recommended.
Everyone I have spoken to got out unscathed--even Ira who chose
(unwisely) to evacuate to Gulfport, MS. I will be doing a rotation
this month at LIJ Medical Center on Long Island. They were very
understanding to our situation. Here are a couple of websites you
might find useful: www.gnocdc.org <-- this site has a topographical
map of NO so you can perhaps predict, based on your apartment's
relation to sea level, how much flooding to expect. www.nola.com has a
blog of personal accounts and a forum for getting in touch with people,
much like this group. Well, that is all for now. Be good, keep in
touch and I look forward to hearing your stories,

They are letting me start a rotation on Friday, and have offered
anything that I need. They are also willing (and waiting) to see how
many other Tulane students need help. There was a T-4 leaving for 2
months who has sublet her apartment to us, and since it looks like we
are going to be here awhile we might just start looking for a more
permanent place. My husband (LSU staff/fellow) got an email that LSU
willbe resuming classes for the med school in Baton Rouge in the next
month or so.
I talked to Nadia, who talked to her landlord, who talked to her
brother...who is in New Orleans...who said the Napoleon/St. Charles
area is relatively unscathed. He said very little to no water, and
trees down but nothing major. I suppose that could change based on
which block you are on...
I am praying for Susan, I hope she got with the national guard and got
herself out of there...if anybody could survive the craziness there it
is Susan.
A nurse with the Little Rock angle network was on TV last night who
said that the Oschner area is pretty okay, and they are operating very
well all things considered.
I'm sure that everyone has heard that the Red Cross is begging any
medical person to come back and help with the 40,000 refugees. They are
even sending faxes to the med schools around the country asking for med
students. I have really thought about it, and I just can't make myself
go back. I don't think I would be of much help...I'd probably just
stand around crying or something stupid.
I was a Red Cross volunteer for 9/11, but when it is your home, your
friends, your community...

about 5 feet of water and a 34 foot yacht crashed into it. Currently

Considering going to NY to try and do a rotation. Any word about

This is Brian Planchard, and I'm in Shreveport, LA. Just posted to let
you know that LSUS medical school in Shreveport will likely be taking
4th years on a first come first serve basis according to the registrar

they'll probably have enough room for anyone wanting to do an elective

Damien is safe and sound in Corpus Chrisiti, Texas. He evacuated
on Sat.
Andy was in the city for the hurricane, and evacuated only
yesterday (in my truck) after the levy was breeched and rising water
threatened to cut off escape routes. He evacuated 4 adults, 4 kids and
a large poodle through water up to the hood of the car. Now he's safe
and healthy in Baton Rouge and trying to fly out.
I'm looking to go back and help out with relief efforts, if anyone
has any hook-ups/contact info I'd' be much obliged, thanks Ash for the

Hey everybody,
I just happened to leave on Thursday to go and visit meredith. Now
we're both back in Arlington,Virginia, and I'm pretty much just sitting
on my ass. My family who lives in Franklin made out just fine,
unfortunately alot of my relatives don't know how their houses made out
since they live in New Orleans East. Anyway, if you need anything email
me at jok...@aol.com. I'll be in boston in the october block and new
york in the november block. If anyone is in the area or will be in
boston/new york in the next couple of months give me a holler.
If you happened to forget your ERAS token in the city and were close to
finishing (like yours truly) just email them. They replied to my email
in a few hours.

I'm doing a rotation at Baylor. From the Baylor and UT Houston
administrators that I've talked to, it sounds like Tulane has been
working pretty hard to get us rotations out here. On a side note, last
night, 15 patients flew in from New Orleans hospitals to be treated.
However, it sounds like a lot of doctors and nurses are still stuck at
the hospital, so think good thoughts for them. I hope you all are

Hi All! Its good to hear most people are safe and making arrangements
to continue life as a 4th year. I happened to be visiting my boyfriend
in Minneapolis before the storm hit and looks like I will be between
here and Chicago for a while. Like Jenny said, Univ of MN is waiving

some time to regroup and "theoretically" study for the boards. Stay

First of all, thanks to Jenny Robinson for letting me know about this
site. Knowing this exists has let a huge weight off my back. I had no
way of contacting anyone to see if people made it out OK, especially
with the phones not working and no Tulane mail
Glad to hear you are all safe and sound. I have been freaking out here
in Mali, unable to get any work done. Due to horrible internet access
(56k modems everywhere, frequent interruptions, and few places to plug
in to the modem) my info has been spotty at best. I am sick to the
core with what is happening to our city, but I know that things will
improve.
I will email more very soon. I am thinking of you all. And, there are
always rotations here in Mali. . . .

Washington U. in DC, U. of Pittsburgh, and UVA. I've talked to people
in all of their Offices of Student Affairs and the response has been
"get us what you can for applications and we'll work with you to find

together at some of these distant sites!

I'm up here in Washington D.C. and starting a sub-I in medicine at a

3rd and 4th year medical students in whatever way they can, space
permitting. No fees, no applications even really. They have been super
cool about everything. On another note, Oskowitz and Ash are on their
way down to Baton Rouge to work with the Red Cross, and Oskowitz asked
me to pass along the info that Harvard Med School is willing to
accomodate students in need of rotations (contact office of admissions)
and is also taking Ob/gyn residents into their hospitals as well. Also,

Dear Craig,
I wanted to let you know...I just didn't know how.
Stephen and I are in Little Rock. The school has been wonderful. Maybe
you'll want to come back here?
Life as we know it is changed. I am trying to not think of what has
happened
to our home, our community, our lives, our friends. We are a strong
people,
we will make this horrible, horrible tragedy into something we can be
proud
of. We are going to go on.
I'm so sorry that you have had to worry about all of us for so long. I
haven't heard of anyone being hurt. We have all lost a bunch of stuff
(I sure wish
I had not spent so much on books!) and we are going to have to find new
homes for the near future, but all in all we came out so much better
than we
could have. Thank God we did not lose any classmates. I haven't found a
way to
check on the office staff or the nurses...but I will.
Craig, don't worry. Everybody is going to be okay. We are all going to
find
ways to bloom where we land. Now is the time that we need you! We need
our
class president back. We need your leadership to help form a clear
path. What do
you say? Care to be Class President from Mali?

Howdy,
In case you were wondering whether your apartment/house was inundated
by the levee breach go to http://earth.google.com/. In case you don't
know what this is , it is an extremely cool program that lets you zoom
into any place on earth down to the street intersection level. Its all
composited from satellite photos, I think. In any event, they have a
special flood overlay of New Orleans which allows you to see exactly
where the flooding extends to in the city and you can look up your
address, or nearest intersection and see how you fared versus the
rising floodwaters. On a general level, looks like everything from
lower garden district and further uptown survived with minimal to no
flooding and those points closest to the river stayed especially dry.
Of course, this info says nothing of what might be happeneing as
regards damage from the hurricane itself, or any other property loss
secondary to looting, water moccasins, or any other new biblical-type
aftermath that may evolve. Nevertheless, if you are reading this, you
are probably safe, and that's what matters, after all. Wishing everyone
well.
Ben

Just wanted to get a string going for any of us who plan to apply to
Tulane/LSU/Oschner through ERAS. Has anyone heard if we are supposed
to go ahead and submit our applications to these programs now or wait
until the dust settles some? Will there be a general university policy
or will it be department-dependent? Any input from Dr. Kahn/Dr. Krane
would be helpful guidance and appreciated.
Thanks.

Martin here in New Jersey, about 15 minutes from New York City.
Just got in from a road trip through Knoxville, TN with C.O.B., went to
D.C., and now here. My number here is (201) 568-9462 and my e-mail is
rickbl...@yahoo.com . Called NYU Wednesday of last week and they
were not able to accomodate me for an away rotation at that time
(didn't have proof of being a student, needed a dean's signature,
etc.), looking at other options in the City and hopefully a Yankee game
or two. Let me know if you're in the area. Take care, and glad to
hear you all are safe.
Best,
Martin

think I screwed up that first post. In brief, in Bethesda, MD @ the
Naval hospital. Recommend that any Navy students trying to get out to
San Diego into already full rotations call Mrs. Pedersen for some help.
She hooked me up. I'm off to San Diego for OCT and then home in MPLS
for the balance of the semester. Any takers? See why Jenny S. and I
won't shut-up about the place. Currently at The Clarion, Bethesda, MD
@ 301.654.1000 room 531. Am currently looking for a place where I can
leave my truck for the month of October while I fly out to San Diego.
Any thoughts? Can also be reached at new e-dress:
justin....@gmail.com. Hope all is well.

Hey guys,
Glad to hear from everyone. Jagan and are doing well. We are
currently in Lafayette (heart of cajun land) and just chilling out.
Actually we are just studying for step 2 and getting buff at RED's. I
just bought a new phone temporarily as the service on our pre-existing
phones improves. The new number is 504 261-4076. My old cell is 505
701-5561. This number periodically works but the text message is fully
functional. My new e-mail is ngupta...@yahoo.com. IWe hope to see
everyone soon. Good luck, stay safe, and best wishes.
Neel and Jagan Gupta

Hi all, just wanted to let you know that you can still log on to
myevaluations.com and compile a list of all your personal comments from
rotations last year.
Hope this helps.

Nice job!), I wanted to give some updates for people not on the list...
I talked to Kimone James yesterday, and she's staying in Atlanta, GA.
She says that Ashli Phillips is also somewhere in the Atlanta vicinity.
I believe Kimone said that Kim Gordon is staying in Baltimore right
now. I also spoke with Becky Delancey, and she's in the Detroit, MI
area. She's doing fine, and actually just got engaged over the
weekend! If you ever make it to this post, Congrats Becky!
I've also spoke with Dr. Cusick, and she's in Montana, en route to
California. She's doing well, but her family is scattered across
America (son in Houston, daughter in Mississippi, husband in Arkansas).
If anyone wants to say hello, she's on AIM regularly-- DrQ6. She's
also in contact with a bunch of other med students who use AIM.
If anyone has any information on Jamie Macklin, please let me know.
She was doing an away rotation in Cincinnati, and her husband may have
been with her or in New Orleans before Katrina hit. I don't have any
cell numbers for her, and don't remember exactly where in Illinois
her/Josh's family lived, so I can't find them searching the white pages.

I'm over at G-town right now on the medicine consult service. I'm
staying in Arlington with my fiance. If you want, we can meet up and I
can try and give you the lay out of the campus, unless you already know
it. Anyway, good luck with the boards. later

spoken with Dr. Kahn, or gotten one single letter of recommendation.
Furthermore, he hates people who speak in third person... which creates
many intrapersonal problems for himself...
Katrina is a b@#*h.

I just began an Anesthesia rotation at Cedar-Sinai Medical Center in
Los Angeles. The head of the clerkship is a Tulane grad and insisted
that any students looking for a rotation for any length of time was
also welcome. I worked through the UCLA student affairs office but you
may encounter similar static via the AAMC through this route. His name
is Dr. Wender should you wish to contact him directly. I don't
currently have an email but am sure it is available on-line. Best to
all.

That would be great except.... I actually, as of this morning, may
decide to just go back to Houston. It seems I might have an easier
time being at the school and having access to everything I need.
Deans/ERAS letters, etc... Appreciate the help though and I will keep
you posted.

other options are a big pain in the butt. who wants to get an apartment
together? maybe get 6 or 7 fourth years in one place and have a big

I have been in Baton Rouge volunteering at a field hospital set up in
an old kmart. We found that there were not a lot a major medical
emergencies, just a lot of displaced people in need of chronic meds and
lots of social issues like trying to find housing and reuniting
families. The stories were amazing and very devastating. A lot of
people just needed a bath after sitting on a roof for 6 days, some new
clothes, and someone to talk too. Unfortunately the tons of volunteer
docs were unable to fill that need because they are unable to think
outside of their own little box and have since left town very
frustrated.
When the Kmart hospital closed, 2 docs, 5 nurses, a pharmacist, and I
comandeered a bus and tons of medical supplies and drove to Houma and
then to Belle Chase giving medical help, medical supplies, and vaccines
to evacuees and relief workers. Now that that mission is over, I am
looking for more volunteer work. Maybe going to the PMAC tomorrow
hoping that the patient # is now lower than the # of volunteer docs. I
call this my Hurricane Katrina Relief Rotation. I'm gonna just keep
volunteering until I go to San Diego Oct 2.
One happy note during a time of disaster . . .TNed and I got engaged
the day before the hurricane. Sorry I haven't been able to call anyone
yet.
My phone now works most of the time 504-610-7119.
New email: jessic...@yahoo.com.
New address for now: 735 Lakeland Drive, Baton Rouge, LA 70802.
I have also met docs from all over the country offering to take on 3rd
and 4th year med students for rotations with housing. I will post soon
when I get my list together.
Hope all is well with everyone and that we will all be reuinited soon.
Call me if you are in Baton Rouge.

update: I've had show (just this a.m.) and have started to have actual
contractions (that I can't type through). If you're interested in more
info, I'm posting regularly on my LiveJournal:
http://www.livejournal.com/users/j00n13
and will try to post before leaving for the hospital.
My best prediction is that Eva will be born sometime between this
evening and Thursday. I'm scheduled to be induced this Saturday, so
she's coming out one way or another :)
I'd like to send an announcement to our class once the baby's born.
Does anyone have an idea which listserv or bulletin board is closed to
SOM2...@tulane.edu? If so, send me an email at
lusty_...@yahoo.com.
