At least twice a week since July I've had people thanking me for my neuroendocrine cancer education and telling me how often they use the resources I built them :') idk imposter syndrome is ever present and in healthcare you can even have thoughts of "Man, am I spending too much time educating/researching on poorly understood cancers?"

I'm still struggling to decide on format, but I'm currently compiling my research and resources to make a self-guided cancer education resource for my team. I really enjoy my job rn but I think focused cancer education would be nice to springboard into later in life once I finish learning about the inner guts of the ACA. I'm finally healthy enough to consider higher education, but the catch is my employer insurance is the only reason I can get my medical care...and leaving for school to be able to focus more officially on cancer education means I'd lose that medical care security :(

#Creepy chatter #Idk I think I want another few years at least in my field since I can sample each medical specialty but oncology is my babygirl #The emails I get from the NCI..boy you would not believe the insane breakthroughs we've had in just this year #Literally modifying cancer cells to 'I hope we both die' to themselves + treatment resistant cells #Hi hello we are learning to hijack cancer evolution to make it kill itself with a series of kill switches #But first I want to understand this busted but improving system and how to protect affordable care for the most vulnerable populations #I learn the jargon. I break the jargon. I make an education series. Repeat lol...#Anyway biochem is my fun thought for a major and then focusing it into an oncology arm #Or maybe just cellular biology to learn more about immune checkpoints + mRNA revolutions #Last time I seriously thought abt going back school I was 22 and got diagnosed with Forever Expensive Sickness #🧍Me when I...me when I want to work w cancer closer but my health is too expensive to maintain w school 🧍🧍#So I focus in the ACA until I can do school ig ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ do good where you are rn and all that #Cw medical #Cw cancer #Sorry forgot my tags lol...during my work day it's easy to forget
