Without funding, biological materials won't be maintained. #Cell lines will die. Labs will have to try to freeze as much as they can. Hope they can re-establish them. Just 1 example that would affect nearly all #cancer #research. #trump #NIH

#day25 some realness - I've achieved loads and we're about to embark on a lifelong dream, but I can't feel it. I just feel anxioud. Is it change, or should I try #sertraline finally?

#day23 Henry and Sunny are home, but Sunny seems to be mad at me for not going with them. Sigh. It was not a betrayal, I promise, pup!

If someone works out how to stay informed, but not depressed, please let me know? #day21

It's a weird day. A big* day for the world, and I've spent most of the day putting lamps and rugs into storage... I'm feeling very small, maybe insignificant
Definitely without much control. #day20 *read:horrible

The house is nearly all packed up, and furniture is selling. It's almosy time for the big clean #smol #day17

Packing for #Thailand, for two! Is this my proudest achievement yet? I think so! #backpacking #day16

#day14 There's a lot of paperwork for this adventuring malarkey.

Is that hope I’m feeling? It’s been a tough few days, and today started off terribly—but there’s a good chance it’ll end on a high. Fingers crossed! #day13

Feeling the stress—and societal guilt—of becoming a landlord 🤢 as we plan to rent out our home forever to chase a dream: travelling, trying full-time #vanlife, and finally moving to the Southwest. A bittersweet step toward an exciting new chapter. #day12

5. Some days, “chomp chomp” means hanging up the washing, other days it’s writing a single email. It’s about valuing any progress, no matter how small.

It’s a way to be kind to myself while still moving forward. #chronicillness

4. Were these massive accomplishments? Nope. But they mattered. These tasks needed doing, and by taking just a couple of chomps, I made progress

3. Today, I had a terrible #flareup —one of those days I could’ve easily curled up and done nothing. But I didn’t. Instead, I:
📦 Packed one box of living room knick-knacks
📁 Sorted through a small pile of paperwork

2. The idea isn’t new, but naming it helps me stick with it. When I feel stuck or unwell, instead of focusing on the mountain of things to do, I focus on just one bite.
