Every Doctor-Mom Needs To Read This Essay

I’m sharing this beautiful and powerful essay by a med school classmate, friend and hero. She writes about her invasive breast cancer diagnosis at age forty- one, and how it changed her life– for the better.

  • Hi ! Thanks for sharing this piece. There is a lot I can relate to in this writing, especially the feelings of being more patient and relaxed during the actual cancer. You have nothing else to do but “do cancer” and in busy lives how often can you just do one thing? Too bad it takes this to make us look at life. Cheers, E.
