Nota bene
Recently I read a very moving, powerful, and at times, fearful, distressing, but also hopeful article, written by a senior surgeon and academician in the US, speaking out about the rise in mental illness and suicides amongst physicians and surgeons in the US, by highlighting her own story and journey. More on this later.
For now, suffice to say, what I read resonated with me. I felt a sense of kinship and indigeneity with the story and the storyteller.
