One of the reasons I love what I do… Inspired by her resilience and positivity!
Every weekday for a month, Roberta Burns laid under a special mask to undergo photon therapy for esophageal cancer. Now the mask is an artistic reminder of her experience. “I call it ‘Life Mask’,” Roberta says. fal.cn/3q113 @RJMehran @AileenBChen #EndCancer

We will deeply miss her… I first met Mendy as a medical student and she has always been an inspiration to me with her kindness and endless positivity
It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that I inform you that Dr. Garvin Davis’ wife, Dr. Mendy Jeter, passed away last Thursday morning. Dr. Jeter was an irreplaceable member of the thoracic radiation oncology family @MDAndersonNews for over 20 years. @ACKoongMDPhD

I am so sad to hear this…Larissa touched so many lives and was a wonderful friend and colleague. She will be dearly missed…
Today is a sad day for me, @andyzwang, the entire @mit_hst, @harvardmed, @DanaFarber, #womenwhocurie, @HemOncWomenDocs communities. Our dear friend @drlarissalee has died after a heroic time living with metastatic colorectal cancer.
