Made plans to attend a medical conference in Baltimore in 1995. Picked up the newspaper one day and read that John Paul II was coming to Baltimore the same week. As the time got closer, we realized that his motorcade would be going right past our hotel, so I skipped a couple of sessions and my husband and kids and I staked out a spot on the corner across from the hotel. They set up a jumbotron on the corner and we watched him say Mass in Camden Yard. Thousands of people on the street saying prayers and singing hymns. It was awesome. Then the parade came by. My kids will never forget it. (The ride back to my sister-in-law's house in a van with 15 Carmelite nuns was another unforgettable experience.)

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
