@victoria_derm: As a child, I couldn’t have understood how one day could alter the direction of an entire life, or how something so difficult could eventually become woven into my sense of purpose. I still don’t pretend to understand why some things happen the way they do, but I’ve learned that gratitude and grief, fear and faith, can all exist in the same story. Today, I’m simply grateful to still be writing ours, and I hope I spend the life God gave me becoming someone worthy of the second chance my family received. #doctor #mystory #caraccident #cancerawareness #medical

This made me tear up🥺 God bless you and your sweet family❤️Jesus has been holding all of you through it❤️I once heard this story a woman said on a movie based on a true story and she said this- She said she had a vision or a dream of foot prints.. and she only saw 2 footprints. So she questioned God and said “God, I thought you always said you were with me through my life? I only saw 2 footprints…” and God answered her and said “Those were my footprints that you saw. I chose to hold you.” And it’s so beautiful, because in life we go through hard things, and sometimes we can question why certain things happened, or if God was there. And He is. But sometimes he lets things happened to hold us through it. How could we experience the depths of His love without going through trials? He gives us the spirit of Joy, Hope. And some people question God all the time and ask themselves, “If God was real then why did this happen?” But the truth is, it’s so he can hold us. Truly nothing ever happens without God knowing first. But He always has a plan. A plan to save us, a plan of redemption, and sometimes He allows things to hold us. To hold us with his strong and mighty arms, and He holds us through the fire. And He protects us. God bless you and your whole entire family and I am so proud of you❤️

Goosebumps. “Sometimes his love looks like… showing up for you when you cannot carry the weight alone” ❤️

Wow what an incredible personal story of such strength and resilience. Wishing your family love and light! ❤️Were there reasons you were more interested in plastic surgery and dermatology over oncology or general surgery? Based on your personal experiences, I would have assumed you would have been more interested in the latter.

I sort of struggle with religion but I think this is god giving me signs he is real ik I sound crazy let me explain. This past week I kept asking god to give me signs he was real. Friday night my life changed. My life 360 went off that my mom was in accident. She passed out went off the road snapped a telephone pole in half and then flipped the car. This might have been a sign from god for saving my mom’s life. I watched your slideshow and found it comforting. As I am almost 16 I plan on becoming a doctor too, ever since I was a little. Maybe this video was another sign. (Replied is another photo)

My dad was diagnosed with squamous cell metastatic carcinoma. He was originally given 18 months, but his dermatologist promised to do everything she could to extend that. His Mohs surgery was incredibly successful, more than they thought it would be initially, and that combined with his radiation treatment plan gave him five more years with us- those five years allowed him to walk me down the aisle at my wedding, see my little brother graduate high school, and my little sister graduate middle school. I am forever in debt to his dermatologist and his entire healthcare team for giving us memories, photos, and videos we didn't think we'd ever get. Because of them, I'm in NP school and hope to work in dermatology myself. Forever grateful and hope to one day give to someone else what we were given 🤍
