I am also grateful for my family who stepped in after graduation and let my daughter come live with them so I could focus on intern year (they refused to let me move her to "dangerous" Philly lol) after not matching the first time. Later on in the month, I was able to take my daughter on a family trip to my alma mater LSU.

I have so many questions, and I promise we’re going to get to the management of anxiety and serious illness. Because I might be able to cope and manage in one situation with the skills and supports that I have, and with those same skills and supports, and another situation kind of come unraveled.

By the year 2000, everyone will be in a Medicare managed care plan.”
