"We are proud to publish the Fall 2015 Medical Literary Messenger. As we continue to grow, choosing among the submissions has become increasingly difficult. To help, we have added Dr. Megan Lemay, Assistant Professor of Medicine at VCU, as our Associate Editor. As you explore this edition of the Medical Literary Messenger, we hope that the stories, poems, and images will inspire you to pause and reflect on medicine and the human condition. Gonzalo Bearman, MD | Editor in Chief

It was truly a joy to review these poems and stories. I hope these pieces will bring you, as they did me, a revitalizing connection to the beauty and decay of life and health. Looking forward, the Medical Literary Messenger will highlight the talent within our own institution, when we welcome the “Diastole” section in our Spring 2016 edition. Megan Lemay, MD | Associate Editor"--p. 2.
