According to her, she was 11 when her mum had a house fire accident and suffered serious injuries.
Ger tweet reads:
"When I was 11, a house fire badly injured my mother. I dreamed that one day I would play a role in the reconstruction of burn pts. 16 yrs later, I will be training as a plastic & recons. surgeon in the hospitals that saved her life, at my #1 program @HarvardPlastics #MatchDay2021"
@i3impact reacting to her tweet said:
"My father is a retired plastic & recon surgeon. A lifetime of burn, injury, cleft lip + palate, etc. work. He is 89 yrs old. He STILL gets thank you cards from adults who he operated on when they were children. You have chosen an incredibly meaningful career. Congratulations!"
