CAROL TURNER is a mom, wife, physician, outdoor recreation enthusiast, and cancer patient--in that order. She completed her undergraduate education at the University of Texas in Austin, her medical degree at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, her pediatrics residency at the University of Colorado Affiliated Hospitals in Denver, and her fellowship in pediatric emergency medicine at Harvard Medical School and Boston Children's Hospital. She went on to practice pediatric emergency medicine at Children's Hospital in Denver for ten years before opening her own solo rural primary care pediatric practice in the foothills southwest of Denver. Today she lives in Conifer, Colorado with three sons, two dogs, one cat, and one husband. She hopes to find another patient in the world with her singularly rare diagnostic combination--currently, she's the lone data point--and that this book is helpful to those who read it.
