be sure to watch tomorrow's cbs early show!

meet my little (by 18 months) sister, dr. rachel clark (she's the second from the left):


rachel is an incredible woman - gorgeous, funny, charming and incredibly smart (she's a third year ob/gyn resident at harvard, working at mass general and brigham and womens hospitals). she's an incredible sister, daughter, aunt and friend.

a couple of years ago, rachel had a fascinating case that drew quite a bit of press. the ny times ran an article about rachel and the case that you can read here. apparently cbs caught wind of this and interviewed rachel for a segment that is going to air on the cbs early show tomorrow morning - be sure to tune in! rachel swears up and down that she wore a kentucky wildcats t-shirt for the interview - i truly wouldn't put it past her, she loves to show her pride for the bluegrass. go cats!

you can also catch rachel on tv next year when abc airs a multi-week documentary about the physicians at brigham and womens hospital in boston. do you remember a show that aired a year or so ago called hopkins that was billed as "the real grey's anatomy"? (i think it actually aired in the time slot immediately following grey's). well abc decided to do another documentary in boston, and rachel was one of a handful of physicians that they selected to follow for several months. they even followed her to ky and to my daughter's 1st birthday party in may (not sure if that footage will make it or not, i can't imagine the country would be too interested in a one year-old's birthday party!). you can read a little bit more about the show here.

words cannot even convey how immensely proud we are of her. be sure to set your dvr to record the early show and check her out!

I can see why you are so proud of your sister - what an amazing story. The NY Times piece gave me chills. It's great to hear about doctors who are so dedicated to helping their patients. I'm sure your parents are proud of both of their daughters!
