My mom died of cancer in 2018. Caring for her while writing a dissertation and having a child was the best and most painful thing I've ever done. It also shifted my research from cancer prevention to caregiving. Today, my 1st caregiving study is out w/an editorial by (1/2)

The employee at the company who towed my car just ended the call with “have a better day.” Very appropriate.

My 5yo told me this morning that "daddies should help mommies more." My work here is done.

@Catherineoscopy @JBeckArch NOOOOOOO…although does this mean it’s cheaper now? Cause it was pretty expensive

@hebagowayed “But it’s so hard to recruit diverse samples…” - every time I complain about this at a medical research talk

@Catherineoscopy You’re such a good little med sociologist! Yes you are!

I have a stalker.

Recently, she contacted my employer in effort to get me fired.

She is racist, and has begun contacting ASIAN ACADEMICS connected w/ me on this platform. So, if that is you, there’s a chance she will send a similar letter to your employer. If this happens...

As a sociologist, it broke my brain how little focus there has been on racial & ethnic disparities in cancer caregiving (though as a sociologist, I understood why). Today, our study @MASCC_JSCC sheds some light...and is open access thanks to my @DFCI grant

Black cgs' higher levels of social support and caregiving preparedness partly explain why they fare better than Whites on social, emotional, & physical burden. We theorize (but can't prove) that structural discriminatory forces have inadvertently bolstered these resources.

Immense admiration for Iranian women’s (and men’s) bravery whirling hijabs from atop of police cars and shaving their heads in defense of women’s bodily autonomy…But also shame we’re not doing the same here for abortion rights.

Let it be know: My child verbally formulated and answered her first research question this evening (albeit with Amazon AI, which is basically the Wikipedia of 2022) - “Is it safe for dogs to eat asparagus?”

@hebagowayed Never separate…even when teaching

My new favorite flavor of spam journal invite - straight up bitter:
“Dear Dr. Anny T H R Fenton,
I feel obliged to invite you to submit a paper to our journal…”
