Today is my birthday! I made it to 41. Huzzah! I also cope w chronic pain & can't go to physical therapy due to variants. I mostly rely on the dispensary for pain management. If you would like to contribute to my gummy fund:

Venmo: Kelly-Hayes-23

Had an appointment with a doc yesterday who commented that it's great that physical therapy got me to a place where I could rely on cannabis instead of percocet, which I needed some yrs back. I agreed and added it would be even greater if cannabis weren't SO MUCH more expensive.

Much love and appreciation to everyone who contributed. This is going to be a huge help. And thank you for all the warm birthday wishes! I appreciate y'all.

It's going to take people a while to understand how much damage is being done to our medical system. More people are quitting and there will be another round of resignations after this surge is over. Staffing shortages were already a problem and that problem will worsen.
This isn't simply a shortage of people to do the work -- the consequences of which will be bad enough. You can't simply put back years of expertise that have been carved out of these professions. Quality of care wise, there are a lot of anchors missing.
In most professions, newer people fuck up a lot less when there are experienced people around looking out for them, catching their mistakes and giving them a heads up, or tossing them a solution based on experience. When those people don't exist in hospitals, folks just die more.

Time for a #Yellowjackets catch up binge! I'm four episodes behind.
"What happened to the last person who held you hostage?"

"They lived happily ever after."

🤣😂
Natalie was cold as ice with that cop and I would feel bad for him except he's a cop.

During the 1st surge, I talked w my doctor on the phone & asked how he was. He opened up & said it was awful & being w out PPE was horrifying. Doing shifts in the ER, reassuring others that every day was one day closer to it being over. Now, 1 in 5 health care workers have quit.
I remember getting off the phone and crying. I like my doctor. I was afraid for him. And for my sister, who is a nurse. I just kept thinking, "There is no forgiveness for this." I still think that, but not enough people are turning their attention to the system.
Some people are too busy raging against randoms in hospital beds for buying into conspiracy theories to challenge the system that structured this entire experience (the system appreciates this btw).

When we all stop coughing it's over for these bitches.
I'm only half kidding tho.
It's the two years following a pandemic that are historically the most politically volatile.

When I mentioned that I have a relative who is presently dying of COVID, I limited the replies to people who follow me, because I didn't want to field questions about whether or not they were vaccinated. I hate that people do that when folks are losing people.
I appreciate the kind responses from folks. The truth is, I don't know if they were vaccinated. I have been very vocal about vaccination and I know that the majority of my family has followed thru (it's a large extended family, I'm not sure about everyone).
I didn't know they were sick until it was so bad that I felt like inquiring about their vaccination status would just be shitty. So I gently inquired about whether some other family members were jabbed, to make sure they were as safe as possible. They were.

Chicago teachers want safe conditions. If you want them in the classroom, maybe demand those conditions? Just a fucking thought.
The fact is, a lot of people want the teachers to return knowing there's not even soap in the washrooms, let alone tests, and I wish people would name those conditions and say they want children and teachers to return to that. Bc that would clarify some things about the speaker.
Just say you don't care how many teachers and students get long COVID, or that we could reduce those numbers with some expense and inconvenience. Just be who you are out loud.
