What is it like to be a full time doctor at a Nashville medical Clinic serving mostly a poor and immigrant population...while also living the life of a fully professed religious Sister? How does a young High school teacher from New York find her way into religious life in Nashville, then through medical school and residency and now ten years into the healing vocation of a physician? I thought this would make for a great interview, and I was not mistaken.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Sr Mary Diana talks about the joys and challenges of her medical work, how she found her religious calling, what it was like being in med school as a religious sister, belonging fully to God within a community of Dominican sisters, and how the answer to just about every question can somehow turn out to be..."God."
