My sweet daughter wrote Christmas cards to my patients getting radiation during the holiday season. This is my favorite- “zzaapp + prayers = no cancer” 🤷‍♀️A perfect summary of what I do at work ☢️ + 🙏

Dr. PDBrown is a gentleman and a scholar (and a hero). My 2025 goal is to quiet quit (or out loud quit!) some select soul-crushing academic/admin “volunteer” positions that eat up my time I could be devoting to my family, my patients or my trainees.

Have had to take a break from the toxic waste on x lately but as long as smart folks like Krishan Jethwa keep crafting 🔥 GI rad onc threads, I guess I’ll stick around for a while too!

Agree! We still receive consults for folks meeting the old SWOG S0809 criteria and it’s always felt like a bit of overkill for R0…

Current mood- trying to entertain 4 kids at home while working remotely since Houston is 100% shut down bc of the snow & ice. Grateful for the MD Anderson Cancer Center ride out team (and wondering if maybe I should have volunteered to be part of it… 🙃)

Had amazing time visiting my favorite city in the universe. I 1st learned what a Gy was in this res room. I 1st learned rad onc is the best field in medicine in this dept. Thanks for welcoming a San Antonio gal home- even if just for 18 hours :) ❤️

My friend Stephen Chun shared this excellent podcast with me. It’s so timely to hear how much value clinical trials provide to the American tax payers especially during this time where government funding is uncertain… open.spotify.com/episode/02cQVH…

Tomorrow is my 40th birthday! I spent my 20s trying to get attention, my 30s trying to get validation, but want to spend my 40s making a difference. Would you consider donating to Project Purple® in honor of my birthday? 💜 givengain.com/project/emma-r…

It’s a dream come true! Ready to run #boston129 tomorrow on team Project Purple® The newton hills may be hard, but a whipple, chemo and radiation are harder. Grateful to raise money and awareness for this amazing cause. We need more hope, more options, more cures!

Before vs after 26.2! #boston129 was a phenomenal experience and thrilled to have done it with the Project Purple® team! 13 more washes till this purple hair dye (allegedly) washes out so will get to rep the cause for my next several clinic days 😬 💜
