Reflection Writing #3

This week I have done a lot of research in order to find some more questions that I might have for my interview. During this past week I have learned more about atrial fibrillation. I was surprised to learn that atrial fibrillation causes epistaxis, (bleeding from the nose). My best resource so far has been TheHorse.com, this is because it has many articles written by people who have much experience in this particular subject. I have been adding more and more questions to my list every week. I think that I am going to end up getting a lot out of my interview because I am preparing so much. I am planning on interviewing Jennifer Miller via email but if possible, in person. From the interview I hope to learn what causes the atria to vibrate during a atrial fibrillation, what the growth is when a horse has vegetative endocarditis and how you can prevent heart murmurs, as well as other more in depth things that I have not been able to find in my research. On a scale of 1-10 rating my progress I would say that I am at a 7. I say this because I have not been working on my project every night like I would have hoped due to Adventure Ed. Next week I am going to try and get into contact with Jennifer Miller. I am wondering though if I am supposed to be writing a paper or something. I suppose I will ask my mentor next week.
