We have decided that since the Md Phd would take 8 years, plus another 3-4 years of residency / post doc...... that Chris will be doing a Phd (without the md). Since he wouldn't get a real job until he was nearly 40, and since he isn't to keen on being a physician and likes to research side of things more anyway..not sure that would be entirely worth it.
And as it turns out. . . we'll be going to . . . . . . . . . . .
We'll only be moving about an hour away! And we couldn't be more excited. He'll be starting the Phd program in Biomed Engineering at the end of August. They gave us an offer that was hard to refuse, and we are so excited to stay near family and friends.
Yay for getting this life decision out of the way!
(and no, we won't ever cheer for the Utes..we bleed blue)
