From the Director

OMG it’s a big week! Thanksgiving, and I think there is some sort of football game?  Just kidding, can’t wait to see everyone at the 50^th Anniversary Turkey Bowl.  Check out emails from the chiefs for all the details. Should be great weather and a fantastic time.  And thank you to GME for the Thanksgiving meal for everyone who is working! Much appreciated to all who are taking care of patients and families over the holiday.
