More Short Writings

Abstract

Introduction: As a follow up to last week I am sharing more short writings from our Medical Humanities session in my Structural Inequity, Advocacy, and Justice Pathway. I am sharing reflections from Rahi Patel, UMass Chan 2027 and Kayal Parthiban, UMass Chan 2027. During this type of session, I always write as well to role model that we all can do this in real time - so you will see my "on-the fly" writing below too. Enjoy the Haikus and 6-word story. Here is what Rahi and Kayal said in their emails to me: "I wanted to thank you for a great humanities session today! It was wonderful to put back in context the reasons why I chose medicine amidst the craziness. Also, I hadn’t written a haiku in so long, but found it to be just as powerful when I have pages of stream of consciousness, so thank you for that as wel." (Rahi) - "Thanks for the wonderful session on writing today." (Kayal)
