@Uro_Rich Thank you for your kind words, Dr. Richards! And kudos to you for taking chances. It’s not always straightforward what the right answer is…

@sarah3idbo @JCO_ASCO Thank you so much! Writing has been a labor of love for me throughout my medical journey. There are pieces here and there, but this is my first time producing something that is really resonating with people. ☺️

@Urodoc46 @JCO_ASCO “Every surgeon carries within himself a small cemetery, where from time to time he goes to pray – a place of bitterness and regret, where he must look for an explanation for his failures.” An incredible quote, not sure I deserve the comparison, but thank you all the same!

[Taylor Goodstein, MD @TaylorGoodstein]

Such an unbelievable honor. Thank you again to all the essay reviewers.
