We deported a renal transplant physician who was employed as faculty at Brown.

She had a visa to work in this country and she trained here in the US to provide these services to Americans. We have a shortage of specialist who can provide this care. Why?!

I wrote an essay and was having a bit of a vulnerability hangover after hitting publish.

But I felt compelled to help others learn from my experience with end-of-life decisions.

Someone already told me it helped them have a conversation with their mother. You can learn, too.

I’ve seen children die of

-influenza
-COVID
-pertussis

And wouldn’t wish those experiences on anyone.

Know what these things have in common?!

Effective vaccines that save lives.

Amazing watching a rerun of Madam Secretery Season 5 Episode 17
Whole episode is about #measles and what would happen in 5 years if vaccination rate drops.
So sad 😞 but predictable
