First cancellation that I couldn't fill

My patient cancelled her appointment yesterday while I was in class.  She said she had a school meeting she couldn't get out of.  I have all of my requirements met plus some so I wasn't too worried about that just that I need a patient in my chair so I get experience.  I got her message when I got home.  I decided to call around and got nothing.  I went to school today and told Prof. Costley about it asap and she just said to try hard to find one.  After multiple attempts  to find a patient, I didn't find one.  I knew my instruments were so dull from Monday's appointment, so I decided to sharpen all of my instruments.  This was good practice!  I was able to get them all sharpened again and help a few of my classmates with charting and cleaning up.
