This exacerbated an already difficult and demanding recovery. Months into my recovery, I struggled with…

A few years ago as I was falling asleep I remembered what I believe to be my first memory-- both arms restrained miles away from the stitches on my tortuously itching face. Is that trauma? The next several years were punctuated with appointments and surgeries with various physicians who fixed my face. At risk of wading into the poetic, the dreams to become a physician and practice medicine grew from the admiration I had for the doctors who took care of…
