These delightful treats brought me so much joy [as did the company I was with]; ultimately, this is the energy I hope I can consistently give. I was recently reflecting on who I was during internship, residency, and fellowship.

Breast cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women. [1] As surgical resection is the primary method of treatment for these patients, there is a high risk of blood-borne metastasis. This occurs when trauma to the central tumor causes tumor cells to shed and enter the bloodstream, circulating and then exiting into distant regions of the body. [2] Additionally, surgical operations have been shown to decrease natural killer cell
