@jjfitzgeraldMD My amazing friend @lucebrett wrote a book about her experiences with this called PMSL. We really need to clone doctors like you!

Before I got cancer, I had basically no idea what to say to a cancer patient. Wishing you a very successful poisoning? Glad you’re still alive? No wonder relationships get weird.
