The abortion Craig and I had 22 years ago allowed us the time to become sober - and then to create careers and a healthy family. Our abortion saved our lives.

From the Intend Health blog: @s_smithson writes “Building community requires attention to how we come together, shifting problems into possibilities, and recognizing the power of individual accountability, which is our choice to embody.” bit.ly/3iBVHcV

Don’t discharge patients who need ongoing maintenance physical therapy because the documentation is hard. That’s the tweet

@colleenmfarrell Same. But who would have known it would take less than a minute?

I had this task that I was two months overdue on. I was beating myself up over it, putting it on multiple to-do lists, anxious just thinking about it. I just did it and it took less than a minute.

1/ Every year, I give a talk that wipes me out-emotionally & mentally. But it’s an impt talk to give: about the experience of women in medicine, academics, STEM. It’s hard because it hits home; & because I answer any question & tell the truth. Here are some facts; more in thread

@_infrareal_ Congrats!!! ❤️

My baby is here, and I think she's just great. From the moment she shrieked when the nurse asked, within two hours of her existence, what insurance plan she was on, I knew she was basically hilarious, perfect, my girl. Sofia. With an F.

Our first-ever Student Action Network Mid-Year Virtual Event was a huge success! Thank you to all of our Leadership Pathway members, student teams, and faculty who made it memorable. The PCP National Team enjoyed bringing everyone together, & we hope everyone is feeling inspired!

Can I be honest? I’ve never really liked the phrase “starting a family” in reference to pregnancy. It implies a limited path to family. Starting a family can also be fostering or adopting children, choosing not to have bio children or being unable to, and the family we choose.

With new votes joining the tally, we are on a strong path. But even while we wait for more, let’s celebrate the extraordinary organizers, volunteers, canvassers & tireless groups that haven’t stopped going since Nov. Across our state, we roared. A few miles to go...but well done!

I’ve given half my life to medicine. And medicine wouldn’t give my husband a chest x-ray. Some kids stole a truck yesterday. And they almost stole my husband’s life alongside it. (1)

I appreciate this tweet. Our humanity, which is deeply rooted in connection with others, is so threatened by the pandemic. Nice reminder of how we can do small things to support each other.
