This year, 31 brave physicians and medical students entered their manuscripts in our annual writing contest. Our judges selected William Shores’ poem “Hospice” as the winning entry in the physician category. Honorable mentions in the physician category went to Marilyn Aschoff Mellor’s poem “I Believe, You Believe,” Jamie Santilli’s “Bethany, House of God,” and Carrie Link’s “Infertility 628.2.” In our student category, we named two winners: “Unspoken Words” by Erica Warnock and “The River” by Aaron Crosby. Thank you to all who entered. And congratulations to our winners.
