So I love my First Aid book!

I bought a couple of board review books and I am currently making my way through a tonne of gastrointestinal lectures while using my lecture notes and the First Aid book. The First Aid book, not only helps me know what to place emphasis on in my lectures, but also has wonderful little quirks to help me remember things. For example:

Crohn's Disease:

A fat granny and an old crone skipping down a cobblestone road away from the wreck.

this means: that Crohn's disease has fat wrapping around the intestines, skips segments of the intestines (ie not continuous), has a cobblestone appearance and spares the rectum.

Although this may not mean much to you, I think it is pretty clever and now I remember everything pertinent about Crohn's Disease.

This makes me happy :)
