The only requirements now are as follows:
Breathe.
One foot in front of the other.
Breathe.
Do your best. Know your best is relative.
Breathe.
Repeat.
@StarkJulieanne
I'm sorry you've been feeling invisible here.
I'm sorry your husband hurt you.
It may seem impossible right now, but I'm hoping your 61st year that has just begun, is your best yet & the beginning of even better ones.

Dealing with the death of a loved one is hell. They don't need strangers (all of us) judging their decisions.
Her family knew her best & they wouldn't make these choices if they believed them to be disrespectful.
Please give them that respect.

And if he won't get vaccinated during a pandemic, which is simply logical, how likely is he to be compliant with all that's required to keep that donated kidney healthy once its his?
@Cleavon_MD
Oops, welcome back.
This highlighted part. Why bring up confidentiality.
You never violated that so why are they saying that at all?
Discussions about hospital census & capacity have nothing to do with individual patients being identified.
Both Dr Fauci &
@peterhotez
are being harassed & threatened just for spending time educating us about safety & COVID on tv & SM.
Please RT
@NY_Tuck
tweet below so Dr Hotez & every other HCW & scientist knows we appreciate them.
Look carefully at the picture on Kyle Rittenhouse's twitter acct.
Remember this person shot 3 humans, killing two of them. Both who died had ppl who loved them & the surviving shooting victim lives with the trauma.
@ThisIsKyleR
thinks shooting & killing humans are joke?
@nyulaw
That law student may not speak for the admin of

Is this representative of the next generation of lawyers from your university, considering it written under "Message from the President" it begs the question?

Thank you

Hopefully, her family wins tge lawsuit.
For ppl unfamiliar with Henrietta Lacks, i really recommend reading the 📙, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.
My preference is the book but if 📚 aren't your thing, there's a film of the same name.
It sad that an international expert on COVID has to limit replies to his posts bec some so-called "adults" don't understand science & can't disagree in a respectful, non-threatening manner
I miss responding directly to
@PeterHotez
but thankfully, these protective controls exist
And get your XBB Covid booster if and when it becomes available next week or later this month. Cases, wastewater, positivity, and hospitalizations are increasing. Also don’t forget your flu and new RSV vaccine if eligible
@tmprowell
I try but truly can't image how this feels for you.
On a smaller level, I'm struggling with some vaxxed family & friends who are stuck on "but Omicron is mild so..."
While vaxxed x3, many are around <5year olds & immunocompromised ppl.
Also long COVID , doesn't care.

) who was here from the start of 💮🌸🌺
I'm going to miss her. I'm grateful for knowing her
May her memory be a blessing to all who were lucky enough to know her💙
It's with much sadness that I share that my mom, Flori, died peacefully today after fighting a 16 year fight with stage IV breast cancer. Despite all hardship, she was very clear that she never wanted anyone to say that she "lost her battle",

There's a book from the 90s about adults with ADHD called, You Mean I'm Not Crazy, Lazy, or Stupid.
It's one of the most common things patients have said to me when I've made the diagnosis. Even young children will say it once ADHD is explained to them.
@drcarroll
You're a good person.
Your patients are lucky to have you.
Want to name the insurance company?
You've touched so many of us, maybe they will be pressured into making humane decisions for the humans they are paid to cover.
@orthogal21
Friends of mine named their dog Achilles.
One is a PT & the other an anesthesiologist specializing in ortho so they, too, wanted a related name.
It's also fun when they are walking the dog to hear them say, "Achilles, heel!"
Dear Medtwitter friends,
Can you pls share whatever magic you have to stop itching?
I have a bad mosquito bite reaction (10+bites that are huge) & was put 3 rxs today. I know i can't scratch but they're driving me nutz.
helps a little - - ice packs, witch hazel, Aveeno 🛀
@melissablake
Your face isn't abnormal.
It is abnormal for people to be insulting & abusive to others.
It is abnormal for ppl to be so unhappy & insecure that they attempt to elevate themselves by insulting & devaluing others.
You are perfectly normal.
The insulting person is not.

So horrible for too many reasons to count. In reality,

They are warned a few times before the power is turned off. That was announced/explained last month. Those homeowners aren't being inconvenienced without notice.

We can also send invoices for $2k by email 🐌 mail & prob 📠 to his DC office! Imagine how many he could receive!

@MeghanForBiden
I'm no fan & i don't want her confirmed but criticizing her looks is feeding the same system that focused on Hillary's clothes or another female's voice. It demeans our intelligence.
Fight or attack her beliefs.
It's childish to attack her looks.
It's beneath us.

Their state outlawed remote school in the middle of a pandemic?
The majority of parents refused mask mandates?
When they run out of snow days then what?
It's Fri parts of our Twitterverse & that means it's

Speaking as a Jew, Stephen Miller is diametrically opposed to the most basic values/ethics of religious & cultural Jews
You don't speak for us
Even your childhood rabbi dedicated a Rosh Hashanah sermon to your lack of everything it means to be Jewish
@tnicholsmd
Pet peeve as seen in medical records:
"Patient refused/was non compliant" referring to meds
Often, when asked, the pt will explain, $$ prevented them from filling the rx or they're allergic (and that wasn't in records)
These need explanation: noncompliance, declined, refused
@mssrfcali
Stephanie, I'm so sorry. 💔
I hope you're able to be comfortable & pain-free with the palliative & hospice care while surrounded by family & others who bring you joy.

@RabbiHarvey
In Judaism the life is paramount so i don't believe or understand your statement. In Judaism, life does NOT begin @ conception & if the woman's life is at risk, termination is considered the what needs to be done to save the living.
Did your week go fast? Seems like a minute ago it was our last

gathering, one of my favorite things about twitter, & here we are again!
I don't know what kind of tree this is but there's a whole block with several of these & they're beautiful!
Show me yours💚
Are you ready for

time? I am so ready!
Remember the artichokes i shared?
Overcast day but here are more artichokes from that same yard. There are even more that wouldn't fit in the photo!
I'm really looking forward to your photos over the next day or so💚💚

Dear So&So,
I assume this email finds you either: a) stressed out of your 🧠; b) ill; c) overdosed on chocolate; d) in the midst of binging the final program on your watch list; e) all of the above
Last week it was so late in the day Fri, that to make up for it i decided to post this one an hour in advance of Fri (west coast time)
Happy

We call it FLOWER Friday but remember, any photos you take of 🌲🌳🌴🍂🍁🍃, veggies & fruit from a garden, even snow covered trees are welcome & enjoyable.
This week my photo is a succulent but i have no clue what it's called
Thanks for being part if this💚
@cwebbonline
I love your story about finding home, after school safety, intellectual & creative stimulation, & your career at the library.
In a million years, i wouldn't have guessed these thoughtless, selfish, hateful people would target our libraries.

@AgentAlexS1
No drama intended but someone posted a tiktok link in her comments to how-to video which showed the kit.
It took seconds to find the company.
Certainly they deserve credit/exposure. Don't you think?

I appreciate your ultra-cautious, triple vaxxed, always masked choices.
I don't find you at all responsible for getting COVID.
Hopefully, instead of beating yourself up, you'll simply take care of you & let your body get through this & heal.
@TheBlondeRN
Maybe New Zealand or Australia (not sure which city of either country.
Better gun laws
Better handling of COVID
Good birds
Unusual animals
@TheBlondeRN
what about you? Where would you choose?
@RN_Atheist
@threetimezebra
As a pt, I'm assuming by US majority, it will be Christian. Growing up & not being Christian, it's always kinda forced on us. I'd rather not have it just b4 anesthesia & surg. Ppl assume religious beliefs
If i was on the OR team, it would be religion @ work so no, again.

I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through
Sadly, this isn't the first thread I've read in the past few months. The details differ EXCEPT that they each take place in states where clearly the government hates women (and the family members who also suffer 💔)
We need better
@scottygb
Me, too! My favorite part of lockdown has been the reality of ppl's lives interjecting into video calls & even customer service calls when when they are working from home (dogs barking, kids interrupting, washer/dryers buzzing)

Perhaps, we need to redo his hearingwith all the information this time.
Perhaps, Christine Blasey Ford will be vindicated.
Perhaps, he wouldn't have been allowed to serveo SCOTUS.
