Day 13: As this is posted, I am running my third half-marathon. One of the things I love at each race is meeting other healthcare professionals (HCPs) who run, often to raise funds for causes very near and dear to their hearts and practices. Today I am thankful for those HCPs who work in patient care as well as advocate for patients via fundraising efforts. Missions need money to continue, and very few people are willing to raise or donate funds. It’s hard work, for sure.
