Join us for this day of reflection by viewing ourselves through the lens of some of the many patients we will encounter in the wards and in our career.

GHHS presents the screening of Wit which follows the life of Vivian Bearing, a professor of English literature, when she is diagnosed with stage IV ovarian cancer. The screening will be accompanied by a guided discussion of important themes to highlight the emotional and spiritual journey patients endure when diagnosed with a terminal illness. 

Please stop by if you're interested in free candy, writing short encouraging sticky notes for classmates, and/or a letter of encouragement to mail to your future self! We would love to see you there :)
