@ronsexsmith.bsky.social afternoon in SW Ontario - saw “As You Like It” at the Stratford Festival and then listened to “Hangover Terrace” (the new album) on the drive back!

Medicaid covers almost 75% of the children seen at the hospital where I work, the largest pediatric safety net hospital in the region.

No Kings West Hollywood.
Everyone and anyone here - kids, seniors, pets, basically anyone and everyone.
Peaceful and purposeful

Last stop on the Christmas/Hanukkah/New Year tour was very quick.
I still remember how to drive in snow, but am not complaining about heading back to California!

Parts 3 and 2b of the Christmas/Hanukkah/New Year Bicoastal Tour (ps: Christmas goes until Epiphany!).

Part 1 (SF Bay Area) was too busy and part 2a (TO) was too brief for photos.

Christmas on call at a children’s hospital is special. The entire staff works hard to get the kids home who can go home and to make a little holiday magic for those who can’t.

Happy Holidays to all in our community celebrating a holiday.

Since this is a safe space for cat photos: Amy thinks the bathtub is a big cat bed.

Thinking of my mom on what would have been her 90th birthday.
Lover of opera, hockey, fall leaves, the ocean, and her children. A nurses’ nurse for over 40 years. She made sure that I went into medicine with my eyes open.
We miss you, mom.

Wonderful day in Shrewsbury, UK talking with an artist living with CF. Covered his past work and how CF influenced his art, how his art helped him through hard times with CF, and how he is planning a great future of works depicting other people living with CF. #CF
