In meeting his friend Gus at the old barn Perdy wanted to look around more closely at this falling down place.

There were only five steps, but he needed a rest when he reached the top looked around and saw an old poster on the wall.

Abbreviations for Medical Professions
Introduction This is going to be a textbook of flashcards that can be used by students that are studying in one or more of the following professions. These professions are nursing assistant students, nursing students, medical assistant and even medical secretarial students. Other students who will find these chapters useful could be various kinds of therapists as well as medical laboratory students and a few other fields. To make the flashcards all you have to do is get some 3 x 5 cards and then write the term on one side and the meaning on the other side. As I am writing these you could group the cards in groups of ten (10) for easier studying. Just a note: These chapters will be short say about 600 or so words since they are basically in a question-and-answer format.
