Conaway: Let’s praise the healing and recognize the healers
Dan Conaway
Dan Conaway was a freelance columnist with The Daily Memphian from 2018 to 2025.
“Here are just three Memphis medical miracles, three that have touched my life, brought about by people who have touched the lives of literally millions. Nowhere do we recognize all of our medical professionals, but there could be a way — and a place — to do so.”
