J MACK SLAUGHTER JR is a medical student at UT Southwestern, as well as founder of Music is Medicine, a non-profit that pays it forward by donating instruments and teaching time to teenagers spending time at children's hospitals. MIM facilitates productive escapism during treatment time that would otherwise be spent simply waiting to be released. “I create music and facilitate music education in hospitals because I have seen first-hand how powerful music can be during my own mother's chemotherapy sessions. It brings fullness to my heart to be a part of that experience for other patients.”
