PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Goodbye Round-up

By Daniel Lieberman

 

My heroes have always been doctors. Not Welby, Quincy, or Hawkeye. Real doctors; whose skill and commitment change lives, like my mother's. It would take years of education for me to understand she was born with a spontaneous mutation in a somatic chromosome, which encoded a collagen protein, leaving her with misshapen, arthritic femoral heads since adolescence. She suffered in silence. But as a child, I saw the truth in my mother's face as she grit her teeth when her hips hurt so badly she couldn't stand to raise her five kids. And I was so grateful to the Orthopedic Surgeons who "fixed" her with surgeries that were years ahead of their time. I knew that those gifted doctors, and the surgeries they performed, were the only thing standing between my Mother and a wheelchair.
