I have the BEST job in the world and get to meet the best families during some of their hardest days. Lowell’s tiniest fans are rooting for you, @Patriots. @7News
Our tiniest Patriots fans are ready for kickoff. 🏈 Special moments from Lowell General Hospital’s Special Care Nursery, where our nurses created these festive game day looks. Go Pats!
@defense_diaries I’m a NICU nurse in Boston and glued to the coverage you, Ali & Camryn have been giving us. My heart breaks for how the system is failing so many. The changes (Telehealth) that happened due to Covid have caused irreversible damage.
FUN FACTS ABOUT KEVIN REDDINGTON:
• He wears a skull ring his wife gave him years ago. He wears it as a reminder of the nature of his work—the serious issues and those lost.
• His license plate reads "NG"—not guilty.
• He lives on black coffee. Small, black, hot. Starbucks.
• He’s a biker; Harley.
• He’s a black belt.
• Tattoos: "come and take them" —guns (in Greek) and "Never represent an informant" in Latin.
• He has always worked alone. It is him and his paralegal, Laura. There is no team—it’s Kevin.
• “The man would do anything for his friends and family. He has one hell of a sense of humor.”
@benchslappedtv I am a former maternity nurse now NICU nurse and Boston and this hits lose to home and your point couldn’t have been said better. The way Patrick was handled is sickening.

No wonder Karen Bass is terrified.

When I was teaching kindergarten, I taught my kids that EMPATHY means when you put your heart in someone else's heart so you can feel what they are feeling. That way, something doesn't have to happen to you for it to matter to you.
And I just thought maybe some adults needed to hear that too.
A final piece of advice from Holly Butcher - written the day before she passed away from cancer at just 27:
“It’s a strange thing knowing you’re going to die young.
At 26, I thought I had time…
To fall in love.
Start a family.
Grow old.
But cancer doesn’t care about plans.
Now, I understand how fragile life really is. Every single day is a gift, not a guarantee.
I’m not writing this to scare you. I’m writing to remind you: really live.
Stop stressing over little things. Be kind to your body- move it, nourish it, stop criticizing it. One day you’ll wish you had appreciated it.
Go outside.
Look at the sky.
Feel the sun.
Just be.
Spend less time chasing “stuff” - more time making memories. Don’t skip moments with people you love.
Laugh more.
Write a note.
Tell someone you love them.
Complain less.
Give more.
Helping others brings more joy than anything you can buy.
Be present.
Put your phone down.
Show up - really show up.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect body, or a perfect life.
Just follow what makes your heart light up. Say no to what drains you. Make changes when you need to.
And please - donate blood. I wouldn’t have had that extra year without it. And that year gave me memories I’ll hold close… forever.
Thank you for reading this.
Live your life well.
And maybe… we’ll meet again someday.”

Just your friendly reminder that the amount of aspartame required to cause your body damage is around 40 cans of diet soda a day for multiple decades (we know this because we studied it).
