“My children are embarking on their own lives now. While their paths are not taking them into medicine, I see how medicine has influenced their lives. They are committed to investing in themselves to reach their desired outcomes. They understand the value of dreaming big as they create a life and career they may not envision before. They help others. They enjoy the process through the long hours of study and hard work. From that perspective, it was worth it all.”

Stephanie Wellington is a physician and can be reached at Nurturing MDs.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Medicine’s contribution to my family.”
