The Gift of Hope

Life as a survivor is far more than just cancer and treatment, life or death.

It is a battle for your sanity, a search for power, a dedication to hope, and an attempt to live whatever time ends up being allotted without succumbing to fear.

The Gift of Hope is the intersection of that survival with what it means to be a mother and doctor in these challenging and ever-changing times.

Within that journey lies the meaning of perseverance, the worthiness of the fight, and the difference that love makes.

No sooner did she start medical school than she was diagnosed with a cancer that threatened her life, legs, and medical career. The path that followed proved to be a Kafka-esque series of events and trials that would take her to the very brink. Through perseverance, grit, love, and humor, her path of survival, medicine, and motherhood took shape. It has been a catastrophic journey that led to all that any of us really need: hope.
