Man on street handing out leaflets to me a wheelchair user: “Come on in. Try our new restaurant.”
Me: “No thanks. It’s not accessible-it has no ramp.”
Man: “We’ll carry you in or bring food out.”

Carrying a disabled person is not access.The obvious solution-a ramp is ignored.

Thank you Dr. Jiang Yanyong for a life well lived.

In 2003, Dr. Jiang Yanyong watched in disbelief as Chinese officials downplayed how SARS was spreading in China. He took the risky step of alerting the media to the cover-up. https://t.co/bPKpdU8jU2

#KindnessGoesViral by the way, there are bunches of people in my life who do kind things for me and that makes my life great because I always try to pay it forward.

[Frances Ryan @FiresideConnect]

#KindnessGoesViral shout out to my friend Eric Peterson for weeks of massages to help me feel better. I can't thank Eric enough but I do try to pay it forward.

Time to treat your shoes! Once a month shoe treatment w/permethrin spray helps keep ticks at bay. Treated mine yesterday while taping for an upcoming series with @KellyBatesRI on ABC6 Providence. Looking forward to seeing it. Until then, here’s what to do: https://t.co/Nzxuc08NWZ

Online support groups provide a much needed sense of community for those struggling with #LymeDisease as well as valuable exchange of experience and insights. Find one for you: https://t.co/iEyqdNuMr0

NEW: unfortunately it’s time for another international Covid update, as the BA.5 Omicron lineage (and BA.4 to a lesser extent) sends not only cases but also hospitalisations climbing around the world, from South Africa, to Portugal, the UK, Israel and now the US 📈

[Ted Doolittle @TedDoolittle2]

Today’s dialysis decision proves once again that the federal judiciary’s lack of sophistication in healthcare law & healthcare economic dynamics transcends ideological or political bounds!
