The diagnosis is in: Healthcare didn’t recover from COVID — it broke.
More staff. More funding. Worse outcomes.
Longer waits → sicker patients → slower care → fewer beds….A global doom loop.
And the scariest part? No system has fixed it.

After backlash, Trump deletes the AI image of himself as a Jesus-like figure… 13 hours later.
His explanation?
“It was supposed to be me as a doctor. I do make people better.”
Right… a glowing, robe-wearing miracle worker.

Thank you for all the congratulations & messages of support from my announcement yesterday! I hope I'll make a great NP!
Funnily enough, I'm subbing in for one of my PCTs today. No matter how far I advance, the basics of patient care are always gonna be at the core of what I do.

I’m sure I’m gonna love anatomy & physiology, but I’m definitely going to miss the chem math. I’ll be using it later though, if I need to calculate IV gtt or flow rates by hand. 👩⚕️

You're boi is gonna be a DOCTOR...
...of Nursing Practice!!
It'll be a three-year program, but I'll be worth it to become a Nurse Practitioner. I'm hoping by reaching the highest level of nursing clinical expertise, I can create systems level change & educate future nurses!!

"In 1999 she became Chief Nursing Officer and director of patient experience for the English National Health Service. She left these roles in 2004 to pursue full-time ministry. For her service in nursing, Mullally was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2005."
It's one thing to talk about the nursing shortage. It's another thing to experience it.
Of course I want to help out. But when you're mentally stretched thin & you can't do the job you were hired to do when you're too busy working the job of 2 other folks?
It gets to you.

“Ozempic just got cheap enough to change the world.”
A key patent expired in India last month. Within days, multiple companies launched generics — with 40+ more coming.
Price: ~$14/month
US price: up to $349/mo.
Same drug. Completely different future

Good News: I finally had a Friday off in the longest time!! So rested!
Bad News: I'm working from 7:30am to 9pm at another clinic today...
Worse News: Your boi is opening his clinic at 3:30am on Monday. So my Sunday day off is essentially shot...
Such is life.

An unsheltered erson is asleep directly on the parking lot pavement of the boarded up Lucky Penny diner next door to Trader Joe's, Masonic, San Francisco. A wheelchair with some belongings, at the person's feet. It's 55°F this morning, Easter eve. Hopefully the bright is offering some warmth. 🙏
It's the wheelchair-ed,

The Pitt wrecked me last night. Healthcare is broken. Insurance companies drove it off a cliff. Bernie at

Politics & healthcare must be free from the monetary interests they're enslaved to if these systems are going to actually help people‼️

New book arrived on my way to work tonight: "Fifty years after its original publication, a commemorative edition with a new introduction and updated resources section of Dr. Elisabeth K bler-Ross's beloved, groundbreaking classic on the five stages of grief.One of the most important psychological studies of the late twentieth century, On Death and Dying grew out of Dr. K bler-Ross's famous interdisciplinary seminar on death, life, and transition. In this remarkable book, Dr. K bler-Ross first explored the now-famous five stages of death: denial and isolation, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Through sample interviews and conversations, she gives readers a better understanding of how imminent death affects the patient, the professionals who serve that patient, and the patient's family, bringing hope to all who are involved. This edition includes an elegant, enlightening introduction by Dr. Ira Byock, a prominent palliative care physician and the author of Dying Well, as well as Congressional testimony given by Dr. K bler-Ross on death with dignity. This description may be from another edition of this product."
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee. JOHN DONNE
