Can someone explain to me why an individual needs to be handcuffed when brought to the ER as a patient, AFTER they’ve already been shot and incapacitated by the police? Is that protocol?

*at the airport* Uber: have a safe flight! Me: same to you! 🥴🥴🥴😭😭😭

My toxic trait is that I feel like I deserve an applause every time I (manage to) cook dinner 🥺

Not me writing “eat”, “watch YouTube” and “drink water” on my to-do list so I can finally have something to cross off🥺

I feel sorry for my coworkers…they honestly have to see me looking my ABSOLUTE worst everyday 🙃

I’m not superstitious but I will be requesting off every Friday the 13th from now. Because I don’t know what kind of mess I just experienced in the ER tonight…

How many more mass shootings need to happen before common-sense gun safety reform is seen as an absolute necessity? How many more lives needs to be lost before gun violence is truly viewed as a public health issue/emergency?

That part.

The last 2 weeks have been ridiculous. The day after #Uzalde, I had 6 gunshot victims in 3 hours. I was not surprised but I was not prepared. We owe our patients and their families more than “thoughts and prayers.” Check our article… @ResusOne inquirer.com/opinion/gun-vi…

I don’t want to hear nothing about a MONKEY nor a POX. I’m tired.

Can we get a think piece about the instability of pregnancy emotions + the unpredictability of grief?! Maybe I’ll write one, but in the meantime…I hate it here…
