Pregnant and in pain? Why waiting or guessing can be fatal. A threadđź§µ She was 25 weeks pregnant. She had abdominal pain. She self-medicated. She went to a small clinic. She was sent home. By the time she got to us, it was too late. https://t.co/lUcV97VJrW

Just returned from #Bethune2025 in Calgary, where we gathered to pursue equity in Surgical, Obstetric, Trauma & Anesthesia (SOTA) care. I had the honor of presenting our work on surgical access in Uganda — and left deeply inspired. A thread 🧵👇 #GlobalSurgery #SafeSurgery

While on Calgary’s Peace Bridge, I imagined its resemblance to a Bare metal stent; used in life-saving heart vessel interventions. The helical, lattice-like design, open yet strong, mirrors the structural brilliance of stents that restore blood flow through blocked arteries.
