Chris Snow lived his life to the fullest and changed the world along the way.

Despite his own battle, he was dedicated to helping find a cure for ALS and assisting others as much as he could.

His long-time friend Craig Conroy reflects on his life and his impact on the world.

How insane is it that some teams in the travel baseball industry are “recruiting” 12-year-olds to play for their teams? Either they don’t understand development, or don’t care about it.

Good morning, Canada.

There are no more Olympic medals to be won. No triumphs. Heartbreak. Collective celebration.

Nothing stays the same. A stirring @CBCOlympics montage by @b0undless that sums up the 🇨🇦 journey.

We are officially back to getting crushed by #COVID, and for #pediatricians this wave feels *worse* in many ways. And as a pediatric hospitalist who has been a front-line COVID doctor for the entire pandemic, I’m going to share what I’ve seen the last 8 days on service. 1/

To the makers of toddler clothes:

Why do you add pockets? Toddlers don't own things they need to put in pockets. They just put food in there that I find 6 hours later. And that's gross.

Warm regards,
