As someone who has to manage a chronic disease every day, how can I build a career that understands patients beyond their prescriptions and helps them live a life unshackled from their limitations? #Spring26
Type 1 diabetes has forced me to completely change my lifestyle. Everything from what I eat to how I plan my day comes with a layer of calculation and awareness that shapes your sense of freedom. I want to peruse a career in healthcare than helps others feel less limited by their diagnosis and more in control of how they live.

How do you treat a patient in a healthcare facility who wants to do everything by themselves and resist your help? Especially if they're older and don't believe in your skill. I might get in trouble if I just have another clinician treat them if I'm assigned to. #Spring25
