The U.S. is expected to surpass 1 million deaths from COVID-19, a grim marker that seemed unfathomable when the pandemic started. As a tribute we're asking you to share songs that remind you of a loved one or friend that worked in a health care facility. n.pr/3HIDpAW

I am now officially a former Inquirer reporter. I'm going to take a couple months to see how it feels to not be on deadline all the time. Then, who knows? I might even say what I think once in a while.

When older adults were treated as invisible during COVID, the effects were catastrophic. Congress cannot let that happen again by ignoring them in the Build Back Better debate. LeadingAge's Katie Smith Sloan speaks out in the @ajc. bit.ly/3bcQyEw

This story underscores why funding for programs that will help train workers in the home and community based #aging services sector is so badly needed. Elements of the reconciliation bill currently in discussion could help to provide critical financial supports. #Congress

If ever there was an example of why a financing mechanism for long term services and supports is needed, this is it. Support the WISH Act introduced by @RepTomSuozzi

@KerriMPR I didn’t want kids until late 30s. Fortunate now to have two (twins). But parenting is hard and our society offers little support for parents—particularly moms—...and what a lonely journey it is to realize that while parenting. That said, I am grateful for my kids.

I'm interested in whether you've decided to have a smaller family than you'd originally dreamed of. Or maybe you're forgoing having kids altogether? What contributed to your decision? -because a lot of other women are doing the same.
