It’s spring! Or, warm season 1. Left for the weekend and came back to my whole backyard growing frenetically, fruiting and flowering. The verdancy of this swamp (Houston)!

It was a beautiful Houston day for the @DrMarnieRoseFdn annual Run for the Rose! I'm seriously so inspired by every single one of my patients with brain tumors, not to mention their caregivers. @MDAndersonNews Brain Tumor Center was staffing the first aid tent! #endcancer

Please read about our girl and share.
