A personal note today.
A year ago, my chiropractic mentor, a man who was family to me, passed away unexpectedly. It's been a year and I still cannot believe he's gone. He'll never adjust me again, I'll never get to adjust him. He adjusted my grandparents, my aunts, my uncles, my mom, my brother. He was the first doctor to adjust me. He saved me from surgery. He gave me a path when I had felt like a failure that medical school was not the journey I wanted to take. He wrote a letter of recommendation as an alumni of Palmer endorsing my entrance. I would text him after my board exams, my white coat ceremony, my first day in clinic, graduation, when I decided to open this practice. He was a huge part of feeling like I was capable to do whatever I could dream. He brought light and healing to everyone he touched. Mark, I hope I make you proud. Mark, I hope your spirit flows through my hands carrying the same healing and light you brought to the world, to all I touch.
Love you forever Mark.
