I woke up today with so much in my mind, and that Sylvia Plath quote pierced right through me and I felt every inch of it.
This made me think about the life cycle of a butterfly and how much it resonates with our lives. Female butterflies lay many eggs because not all will (1/?)
survive. Apparently, we are the eggs that survived long enough to become caterpillars. Oh the fun stage, probably the school years where we ate and ate and ate and ate again to grow and run around exploring everything. Then comes the pupa stage, the very uncomfortable (2/?)
one especially because hidden inside the coccoon is us knowing what we are cooking but outside it looks like we are stuck in a box for weeks, months and even years. This is a stage of patience and resilience. Depending on the species, the pupa may be suspended under a (3/?)
A lot of people spend most of their lives away from their families and homes that they barely build a community around them. They become visitors of their own homes. Things that used to hold people who live around together donβt do that much anymore. Weddings, funerals conducted
far from home. Where one builds their house to call home is not where they live. So, you have this group of people who have spent most of their lives away from home for years and suddenly they have to build a home and make it work with those within it and around it.
Kids spend years in boarding schools away from home and holidays are for visiting relatives again away from home. For years & suddenly they get to university and have the new found freedom in their hostels and home becomes somewhere they visit when they can; again AWAY FROM HOME
Mjadala uliofanyika leo katika mkutano mkuu wa MEWATA kuhusu afya ya akili baada ya kujifungua, umenikumbusha mbali.
Siku moja napita round wodi ya watoto wachanga nawahimiza kina mama kunyonyesha watoto, mama mmoja aliniita βdokta ukimaliza njooβ #UZI#MEWATA2023
Nilipoenda akamchukua mwanae akanikabidhi mkononi akasema, βshogaangu hebu niangalizie mwanangu, maana mie sijielewiβ
Nikamuuliza, βunajiskiajeβ nikidhani labda ana shida ya mwili ili tuwaite watu wa wodi ya kina mama waje kumhudumia. Akasema, βyani nikimbeba hivi mtoto kumpa
maziwa, kuna sauti zinaniambia kabisa nimnyonge. Yani nawaza nimzibe pumzi afe. Sasa mi sitaki kumdhuru mwanangu, naomba unilelee tuβ
Unajua hivi vitu ukivisoma kwenye vitabu vinaonekanaga kama utani fulani hivi hadi siku unakutana navyo. Nikawasiliana na in charge tukatoa
When I saw a stream of blood down my leg, I knew right there and then; itβs happening! My worst nightmare was coming true and I couldnβt believe it because it was already days after delivery. I have NEVER been that terrified ALL MY LIFE.
This is my story: SURVIVING PPH #Thread π§΅
I tried to be calm, but I could hear my heart pounding in my ears. It felt like someone ripped out my heart and put it in speaker right next to my ears. I felt dizzy, so I sat down. I canβt tell if I was dizzy because of blood loss or the fear of becoming a statistic.
As we prepared to go back to the hospital, I tried so hard to appear calm; a big smile on my face but in my heart I was terrified. I knew it very well, PostPartum Hemorrhage is no joke. In a matter of seconds EVERYTHING COULD GO WRONG.
I asked for ONE thing: my rozary ring.
Kuna safari hata ziwe fupi vipi, hazisahauliki. Hazisahauliki kwa mengi; watu uliosafiri nao, watu uliokutana nao, experience ya safari na mengine mengi.
Mimi safari hii pichani sitaisahau.
Nilipata wasaa wa kushare na @buguzi@NormanJonasMD@DrArabiFrank na @JuliethSebbaMD#UZI
Ilianza kama utani hivi, nikafahamishwa nimepata nafasi ya kufanya mafunzo Morogoro ambayo yaliandaliwa na @sikika1 na @tacaidsinfo
Na mimi mpenda safari na mpenda afya, naanzaje kukosa? Nikafungasha kibegi changu uelekeo mji kasoro bahari.
Moro bwana! Moro PAZURI NYIE! Basi tu.
Katika mengi nilojifunza siku hizo mbili, kuna kitu kimoja kilichonivutia zaidi ya mandhari nzuri ya Morogoro, maana mara ya mwisho nilikuwa hapa ilikuwa ni trip ya Udzungwa na Mto Mawe.
Kitu hicho ni Mfuko wa Udhamini wa Kudhibiti UKIMWI Tanzania (ATF). Leo naomba niwashirikishe
SEHEMU YA PILI #IjueChanjoNaDaktariMwandishi
Leo, saa 3 asubuhi, Rais SSH atazindua chanjo pale ikulu kwa kupata chanjo hiyo.
Wakati huo, tuendelee kujifunza kuhusu chanjo za COVID19 haswa aina ya Johnson&Johnson ambayo ndio imepokelewa. #UZI FUATILIA #DaktariMwandishi
3. JE, NIKIPATA CHANJO YA COVID19 KUTANIFANYA NIWE NA SUMAKU (MAGENTIC)?
Hapana. Chanjo za COVID19 hazina uwezo wa kutengeneza "electromagnetic field" (uwezo wa wewe kuwa sumaku) na chanjo zote hazina metals.
Unaweza kuangalia nini kimo kwenye chanjo katika ukurasa wa CDC.
4. KWANINI BAADHI YA TAARIFA ZINASEMA TUMEPOKEA CHANJO YA JOHNSON&JOHNSON NA NYINGINE ZINASEMA "JANSSEN"?
Jina kamili la chanjo iliyopokelewa Tanzania kupitia mpango wa COVAX ni "Johnson&Johnson's Janssen(J&J/Janssen) COVID19 Vaccine" kwahiyo ni kitu kimoja wala si chanjo tofauti
