Thank you for this. It echoes my son's experience; it's heartbreaking to know how many lives are silenced. Thank you for your courage and determination; your words encourage others - the ripple effect. It makes a difference! My son worked at OMF until he got COVID. Hoping for your improvement! 🧡

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Hi Tay,

Thanks for checking. We continue on. Trying a new med that may take a while to show results. VCU clinic on hold for now. Keeping an eye on new research and potential treatments. Many ME/CFS patients are ill for decades. We remain hopeful. "Hopefulness is the warrior emotion..." -Nick Cave

The January 6 Insurrection
The January 6 Insurrection YouTube video by Senator Kaine

Today, I am reflecting on the bravery of the officers who heroically defended our Capitol on January 6, 2021, from violent insurrectionists sent by Trump. We must never forget the five officers, all Virginians, who lost their lives due to the attack.

Hi, Tay. Thanks for checking in. Brent does have some basic home care, but the VCU group that can really help him won't come to the house. Good news is we have a wonderful new physical therapist, and he is making some small progress with her. We are on a very long road....
