Hello, (Friends of Doctor) Dolly!

I know many of you are landing here thanks to my daughter, Dr. Dolly. She was just published on KevinMD.com, and my celebratory post on Facebook labeled her a " chip off the old Doctor Dalai " . Thus, her friends are now discovering whatIdo in my spare time. Hopefully this won ' t reflect badly on Dolly. She is, after all, at the beginning of her career, and I ' m at the end of mine. We don ' t want potential employers, colleagues, administrators, scrub-nurses, or Uber-drivers to think she might turn out like me! (For privacy reasons, I ' m not linking back to KevinMD.)In some ways,I ' ve taken a page fromher book. While in medical school, Dolly went on a number of mission trips to such amazing places as Oaxaca (Mexico), Nicaragua, and Uganda. And South Dakota. Having more time available and more training behind me, it occurred to me to do the same while bouncing around the purgatory of quasi-retirement. Once I found RAD-AID, the die was cast. Both of my loyal readers know that I ' ve been to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra, Ghana, an incredible trip. You can read about it right here on my blog if you haven ' t already. A medical mission trip is not something you do once; the experience changes you (for the better). The desire to give back, and the growth involved in the process, is addictive. The friends you make, the things you see, the joy of being out of your comfort-zone all necessarily call for an encore performance.Thanks to a tremendous opportunity provided by RAD...
