I was recently diagnosed with infertility and I now have to use IVF to get pregnant, but insurance won’t cover a lot of our expenses so…
I’m sharing this link and if y’all can donate, that’s amazing but even sharing it means the world to me🤍

@sweetheartwendy@SouthwestAir People need to understand elderly people take a longer time to do things. If you can’t understand that & be patient, maybe that’s not the field for you!
I keep stumbling across this picture.
It’s shown up more than a few times in the last 12 hours.
And I’m certain others have seen it too…
It’s powerful.
Not because of what’s happening in the moment…
But because of what it represents.
This isn’t a picture of one bad call.
It’s the weight of many.
Law enforcement officers see things most people never will.
Things they carry with them long after the scene is cleared.
They’ve knocked on doors at 2 in the morning to tell someone their loved one isn’t coming home.
They’ve tried to save lives… and sometimes they couldn’t.
They’ve heard the screams of families who just lost everything.
They’ve searched for the missing and recovered those who didn’t survive.
They’ve stood in courtrooms, in crash scenes, and in homes forever changed.
And somehow, they keep showing up.
Shift after shift.
Year after year.
You might see them smiling at a gas station
Or waving to a child
Or standing quietly at a public event
But you don’t see what they’ve held onto from the night before.
You don’t see the calls that replay in their mind when everything else goes quiet.
You don’t see how certain places bring back certain memories.
You don’t see how they keep some stories locked away just to keep functioning.
And most of the time, they don’t talk about it.
Not because they don’t feel it
But because they do.
The job asks for more than time.
It asks for presence,
Compassion,
Composure,
And strength in moments that could break anyone else.
And in the middle of it all…
Some don’t make it home.
They leave behind uniforms folded neatly in lockers.
And families holding folded flags.
And a silence that never quite goes away.
So if this image keeps finding you like it has me.
Let it remind you of this.
Behind every badge is a human being.
Carrying more than most will ever know.
And doing it anyway.
Support them,
Pray for them,
Encourage them,
Because they carry the weight,
So others don’t have to…
Be safe ,
Trooper Ben
