When I was a teenager, my grandfather was hospitalized for a short time as a terminal patient. I remember being tasked with suctioning the phlegm from his lungs with a special cannula. That brief experience gave me a sense of the power of healthcare, reinforcing my career goal of being a doctor. Much later, as a medical student and then fully-minted MD, the in-hospital battle waged against death combined with the knowledge of its ultimate inevitability, created the first stirrings of existential confusion – Was what I did enough? Did what I do matter? The answers can be simple and complicated at the same time, a truth known to anyone who interacts with toddlers and their Whys

Regarding kids, I am a changed (and better) person through being a mom, and though that role raises more existential questions than ever before, I am graced with that identity by two little ones (no matter how big they are!).
