How are we ever going to overcome the complex web of ridiculously high inhaler prices? Forcing patients to make a choice between food, heat, and breathing is unconscionable. Important commentary in this week's JAMA.

My workout app just told me that I’ve done 1600 workouts in the 8 yrs since I started, a month shy of turning 46. That doesn’t include all my other ski days, hikes, yoga classes, bike rides, etc.
That averages out to 4 workouts/week for 8 years. Not bad for a middle age mom-of-2 full-time doctor.

What a village we have at #KidVengers - our kids, our moms, our spouses, our colleagues, so many!! - joining this amazing group of Pediatric HCW to fight hunger as part of #HCWvsHunger
Maybe too many years of CandyLand and Connect4 but we're competitive when it matters!
THANK YOU!

In 2nd place, with $336,162, is #KidVengers. This is unreal. They're an unmerged team of pediatricians with big hearts & a ground game like no one else. (Pro tip: Hire them to run your election campaign if they ever leave #MedSky.) They've WON 3 out of 6 #HCWvsHunger competitions! /6
