A youtube video of my daughter at work (she is a vet)

[Ginny Nightingale]

I know I have mentioned (probably too many times) that my daughter is a vet--she is a dairy vet but also treats other farm animals and horses. There is a Youtube series called "Veterinarians on Call" produced by the Pfizer company and they just released a video of my daughter and her boss and mentor, Dr Pete Ostrum, at work.

If Pete looks a little familiar to some of you, he played Charlie is the old Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie--or maybe it was called Willie Wonka (the one with Gene Wilder) Anyway, that was his only acting job and he dedicated himself to becoming a vet after that.

I just thought some of you might be interested...but truthfully, I am a proud MOM!!!

PS--she is now engaged to her classmate from Cornell vet school who is also a dairy vet and just started working at the same clinic :) 

Here is a charming picture of them working together!! But not for the squeamish!!

OMD...makes me glad to be a L&D nurse for humans  hehe

 

How wonderful that your daughter has her dream job and has a soon to be DH to share it with....

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Wow, Ginny, you have every right to be proud of your daughter!

Pete would not have looked familiar to me if you hadn't mentioned it, but his story is very interesting as well!

Thanks for sharing.

Pete was just mentioned on AOL 's where are they now!  Your daughter is awesome - I loved the picture of her and her fiance too.

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

How awesome, Ginny!  Of course you're proud of your daughter....you certainly should be.  Thank you so much for sharing this.

[Amy & Albee]

Thanks for sharing the clip! I think it's so great that she followed her heart and chased her passion!

[Sue & Lily Grace]

You have every right to be very proud of your daughter. Thanks for sharing with us.

OMD, I enjoyed that. I wanted to be a vet but decades ago it was not realistic for a city girl or so I thought. I recently found out the requirement for a year of farm experience, the kiss of death for me, is no longer a prerequisite for vet school. But that's a little late for me despite what your bright, beautiful and personable daughter has said : ) No wonder you are proud.

[Janie, Jackson and Jilly]

Ginny, you must be so proud and congratulations on their engagement! I so enjoyed the video and seeing "Charlie" after all these years too! Thanks for sharing!

[Linda, Webber and Seda]

What a great video.  I see why you are proud of your daughter.  It's wonderful that she followed her dream and loves what she is doing.  Thanks for sharing.

[Camilla and Darwin]

Wow, you must be so proud! Congrats to them on their engagement!

[Ginny Nightingale]

Thanks everyone! The wedding will probably be in a big field in Vermont (her fiance is from Middlebury, VT and Jen went to college in that town) and there might even be a cow or two in that field--Jen has already said that it will be CASUAL!! 

We are very proud of her and someday soon, I might tell you what my son has been up to--another incredible story.
