Can we get an update with the new signings?

Anne Montgomery MD MBA MA FAAFP @annemont.bsky.social · 3d

2 yrs JUCO—should get 1 back. COVID yr at Kansas, doesn’t count. 2 yrs out with heart condition. 2 yrs at GCU. So has only played 3 yrs that count. Problem for NCAA is you have to get 4 years in the first 5 years you are eligible; they are saying his 2 medical years are not “extraordinary”.

Being a patient is no fun. But grateful for excellent care by surgeons, anesthesiologist, and nursing staff. And helpful that I speak the language. I can see how this can be overwhelming for people with no medical background.

We’re here! Along with >40,000 Seattle Mariners fans (and some Toronto Blue Jays fans, but not nearly as many as come to regular season games). #ALCS game 3. Hoping for another excellent game and a big Ms win. ⚾️🔱 #SeizeTheMoment #TridentsUp #GoMariners

Truly hope I didn't jinx them but now have presale tickets to ACLS game 3 and World Series game 4 in Seattle. #TridentsUp #SeizeTheMoment

Away for #ALDS. Bought presale tickets to #ACLS game 1, which could be 10/12 or 10/15. Made refundable hotel reservations and miles plane tickets for both dates. #SeizeTheMoment #GoMariners

At the opening session of the AAFP Congress of Delegates. Honored to be asked to serve as parliamentarian. Looking forward to excellent work on behalf of our members & patients in challenging times. #AAFPCOD

Thanks. Will have to watch for the sale for those, though they won't know the schedule until the ADLS series are decided.

Anne Montgomery MD MBA MA FAAFP @annemont.bsky.social · Sep 26

Did you have to “buy” all 3 potential games or could you just buy one game? Out of town for ALDS but could fly over from Spokane for one specific ALCS game…

Continuing our growing tradition of traveling for sports, flew to Seattle this morning to attend Seattle Storm playoff game. If this awesome crowd has anything to do with it, hoping for a big win for the Storm! #LightTheCity #everyonewatcheswomenssports

Tip off in Seattle Storm-Las Vegas Aces playoff game.

So sorry Steven. That is so hard. Condolences.

Today at South Perry Farmers Market, owner asked if anyone spoke Russian. Woman from back of line helped elderly couple with payment issue. Kudos to owner for asking for help & woman for
helping. Love that Spokane welcomes refugees & immigrants & no one in line thought this was an odd request!

Concerning "sign of the times" we are in. Went to Sacred Heart medical center yesterday to support FM residents. They are screening for measles symptoms at the door and asking people to go away or at least mask. Glad I could tell them no symptoms & know I'm immune. #VaccinesWork #VaccinesSaveLives

“Immunizations work, they are very effective and safe, and they save lives. Vaccines are among the most rigorously studied and effective tools in public health.”

Kudos to AAFP, AAP, ACOG, ACP, IDSA for this.

We will not stay silent on vaccines, say leaders of five major U.S. medical associations

“We cannot and will not gamble with our patients’ health or the health of our communities,” write the presidents of the AAFP, AAP, ACP, ACOG, and IDSA.

On a study abroad trip in college. Our group got front row seats for audience with Pope John Paul II. He came over to say hello and shook my hand! (I’m not Catholic but this gave me good cred as a grad student at Gonzaga.)

Confirmed from Spokesman video that the waft was tear gas. More police vehicles going by. So far no announcements in stadium. Wonder if they’ll alert people not to go south at end of game.

Surreal. Calmly watching Spokane Velocity soccer match not far from this action. Some people on a hill adjacent to stadium looking downtown & waft of something came close. Hope all stay safe. With them in spirit.

Spokane Rising @spokanerising.com · Jun 12

This is going on *RIGHT NOW* in Spokane.

SPD has declared an unlawful assembly and multiple people have been arrested. Police are preparing to teargas peaceful protesters.

I need answers from @mayorspokane.bsky.social and SPD about why they unnecessarily escalated this situation and supported ICE.

RANGE Media @rangemedia.co · Jun 12

Video shared from a protestor shows a wider angle of protestors and our reporter getting pushed back by purported law enforcement agents at the ICE office in #spokane

Saw HIB meningitis (yes, spinal needles with pus) in kids many times in residency late 80s. It WENT AWAY after 1990 vaccine. Not overreacting to this craziness.

When I was in practice my go-to source for information, especially about infectious diseases and immunizations, was the CDC. Very sad for my colleagues still practicing medicine and for all people that this public health resource is no longer so reliable.

Saw Mission Impossible Final Reckoning. Best thing: competent Black woman president. And several other strong women in non-traditional roles.
