My biggest enemy isn't a person.
It's the version of me that says, "I'll do it tomorrow." 😭😭

Our study @acsJACS found that suicide was the leading cause of death among surgical residents in the US.
In recent years, nearly 1 in 2 deaths were suicides, more than accidents, cancer, and other medical conditions combined.

Made it through the first week of surgery residency on the transplant service! What a great team!
Still trying to move into my apartment and find a couch. 😅
