1/n - As I transition to a new role in my career, I wanted to take the opportunity to share some pearls I keep as guiding posts for me. No one is perfect but we all should aspire to be better everyday #medtwitter: ⁃Family first always. ⁃There is no substitute for good health

As #IMGs, we make many personal sacrifices in pursuit of an academic career.Missing family events,birthdays, weddings, graduation ceremonies,working harder than US peers to prove worth,etc.The worst nightmare for any IMG is losing someone very close and not being there…

This came true for me on 12/8/2022 - mom passed away unexpectedly. I was 8000 miles away on the phone as events unfolded on the other side, she was gone within a few mins. Nothing or no one will fill the void that is left behind. I wish we had more time…I love you Ammi…
