One thing I’ve learned in #PedsICU: sometimes you can do everything right and a child still dies. That is heart-wrenching but I can deal with it
But our country is failing kids. We are letting them die. It is beyond my comprehension

When asked about the child who died of measles the secretary of the HHS says “it’s not unusual” to have measles outbreaks. This is a disease that was eradicated in 2000 thanks to vaccines.

Speaker Johnson forced a new mother recovering from a challenging birth to bring her infant son to the Capitol so she could vote to not cut programs for children
They hate women, and they don’t care about kids

It is a special kind of anguish to take care of a child who is suffering from a preventable disease, whether it is one who was:
- unvaccinated
- no helmet
- drowning victim
- gunshot victim
- unsafe sleep
This is what keeps me up at night. I wish it kept our HHS secretary up at night

Eliminating SNAP in order to give tax breaks to billionaires is pretty evil stuff and literally the opposite of “making America healthy.”

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

the clinical feedback of “you’re too quiet” feels like the medical equivalent of “you should smile more” and fills me with just as much anger

Absolutely batshit you can watch on live TV a rotting whale eating, bear corpse vandalizing, brainworm eaten, anti-science sex pest who drove an ex wife to suicide & looks exactly like corrupted Leland Palmer from Twin Peaks & sounds like Megatron auditioning to be head of America’s healthcare.

Mecosta County, MI has a poverty rate of ~20% for residents under the age of 18. According to data from UMich, ~46% of residents can't afford basics of living. Our district's congressman has said nothing about halting crucial federal funds to the few social supports rural people have.

How are you supposed to cope with the rapid destruction of all our institutions? With the inhumane violence being perpetrated against the most vulnerable in our communities at the hands of an authoritarian government? When do we get to stop going about like it's business as normal?
