@mrsfadeji I appreciate you reaching out, and am so glad your friend found the book helpful! At the moment I have paused my clinical practice to focus on raising my five children. Wishing all the best to your friend as she navigates through her “aftermath.”
Nearly a year removed from critical gene therapy at Children's with Dr. Geetanjali Rathore to stop a Spinal Muscular Atrophy diagnosis in its tracks, baby Juliette is living a healthy, happy life. And her parents are readying for a BIG milestone: her first birthday! 🎂

@medschooladvice My husband and I were saying that perhaps it will be the opposite of named tropical storms and hurricanes - that once we’re out of Greek letters for Covid strains, they become the Allison strand, then Bernard, Carrie, etc.
@jtrebach I’m a big fan of Covid vaccination, but every time I see this image I think of how the crust is the best part of the pie, and the person who cut this awkward piece missed out on it! So perhaps it further empowers the analogy here?
@xraveygraveyx You’re a thoughtful person, and that’s why you feel this way. The media either demonizes or deifies people, because it brings in viewers and ratings. But in real life - a lot of times things aren’t so clear.
Just saw that the @Titans have acquired Adrian Peterson, and got a visceral, sick feeling, remembering what his four year old son looked like after being beaten with a switch. I just can’t celebrate this guy - time to watch a different game.
@choo_ek Two kids are fully vaccinated (ages 14 and 12). Two got their first shots (8 and 7). One is not vaccinated (15 months). I continue to take this pandemic a day at a time, marveling at human behavior along the way, and encouraging those who are scared to get vaccinated.
Watching last night’s @Ravens game right now, down to the final six seconds of the fourth quarter, and I have never been so grateful to already know the final outcome of a game.
@EBMgoneWILD Taking it a step further…if a person drowns from not wearing a life jacket, he/she won’t cause the demise of their neighbors from that decision. One’s freedom should stop where another person’s starts. #GetVaccinated
@jointdocShields Either this physician is going to make it through a long career because he can set healthy #boundaries, or he is already extremely burned out. Can’t tell which!
