Diagnosed with Covid in May 2020 & spent 4 weeks in ICU & 1 in inpatient rehab. I was getting better until I had my 2nd dose of vax. It's been downhill since.

I was shocked to receive the Richard Langford Service Award from @Walk4Pics and the @VUMC CIBS Center. I did not know Richard, an ICU survivor who lived with PICS, but by all accounts he was an incredible person and it's special to receive an award named for him. @UCFNursing

PICS has been impacting the lives of ICU survivors for decades, long before the term was coined to describe the collective residual health issues. My ICU event was in 2009 and there is no area of my life that has not been touched by #PICS. PICS changed my life beyond recognition.
🧠💙 Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) remains a serious challenge for ICU survivors. A new study followed patients for 3 months after ICU discharge and found that over 60% experienced some form of PICS. 📖 https://t.co/dP17pkaMls

This is so sad that an adult would do this to a child.
NEW: Tennis star Kamil Majchrzak is looking for a young boy who had a hat snatched from him by a grown man at the US Open. Majchrzak was seen trying to hand the boy his hat when a grown man took it and stashed it in a bag. "After the match, I didn't record that my cap didn't

You've got this. So excited for you.
I'm proud of my friend @SGFesquire who has gone from being on death's door nine years ago to beginning a master's program this week @EmoryRollins. He continues to inspire other survivors and those of us doing PICS research. Way to go SGF!

Children exposed to medical trauma, such as repeated hospitalizations, face developmental disruptions, including trust issues and emotional dysregulation. Early intervention through play therapy can mitigate these long-term impacts. #ChildHealth #TraumaInformed
