To all those that matched, congratulations.. well deserved. For those that did not, don’t give up you’ll get there.. “Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. It is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead-end street.” -William A. Ward

Best quote so far while (finally) reading @Atul_Gawande’s #BeingMortal. “A family meeting is a procedure, and it requires no less skill than performing an operation.” Yup. #MedTwitter
