Thank you Chuck Schumer Elizabeth Warren Ed Markey. The FAA ✈️ epinephrine auto-injectors must be included in emergency medical kits now. This will save lives. I'm lucky to be here today, but other passengers may not be until you fix this. Read my story & why this can happen to you below.

I'm a published author. I struggled to write essays in HS, college, grad school, even as faculty. Never assumed Id be a writer. Never consider writing a skill one can develop. After small lessons via courses, books, rejections - I grew - & felt like I was ready to write a book.
