Today is World Kindness Day. I will forever be grateful for the kindness shown to me by friends, family, & strangers online during my husband’s 6 year battle with cancer and after his passing in March. Helping others in need not only shows them kindness, but improves your own mental health as well.
How Can You Help Your Friends in Need? - Pediatrician | Mom | @DrJaimeFriedman
After experiencing my husband's cancer diagnosis and death, I've learned some concrete ways you can help your loved ones in need.

I’ve gotten used to living alone and I don’t mind it, but sucks when you’re sick and nobody can help you walk the dog or make you tea 😩

Also I’m trying to pull a new toaster out of the box and it’s definitely a 2 person job.

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

1. Really stupid; or

2. Dangerously detached from reality; or

4. Lying; or

4. All three. 🎯

Came back with a cold (not covid) and I never had time to get my work glasses fixed that broke before I left. So overall today’s going to be great.

Back at the airport to go home. As much as I love seeing my family, I’m ready to get out of the cold, see my pup, and sleep in my own bed. Until next time Baltimore!

Well the Ravens lost in the most spectacular and mind boggling fashion but M&T Bank and Lil Jon put on a great show.
Also now my daughter is fully afraid of ravens.

I’m thankful I get to wake up under the same roof as both my kids and my mom.

And hopefully later I’ll be thankful when the Ravens win.

No matter how you celebrate, have a great day!

5 years ago I started a team competition on Twitter to raise $ to fight hunger.

@tmprowell.bsky.social gave us a hashtag & much needed organization

Our team of teen volunteers work wonders in the background & we’ve raised >$3.1 million!

Competition starts tomorrow, join us?

3 infant deaths due to pertussis in Kentucky. 31 babies with botulism from contaminated formula.
This is why we need functioning public health measures and science based employees in the health department.
Dialing back regulations and creating distrust in vaccines kills Americans.

A third infant in Kentucky has died of whooping cough this year.

Reminder: The best way to protect against whooping cough is to get vaccinated. Adults should get a Tdap booster every 10 years, so please check, you may be overdue!

What is the likelihood I’ll fit in a 5 or 10 minute core at 3:30 am tomorrow before getting ready for the airport? I don’t want to lose yet another streak so I need that blue dot!

Peloton people get it.

Happy Thanksgiving week! 2 days of work and then I’m off. I’m so thankful for all of my patients, colleagues, friends, family, and all my friends on this little app. I’m way more ready for the holidays than I was this time last year.
Grief goes on but I’ve made so much progress.

Last night my marketing manager and I attended the tree lighting at Camp Pendleton to promote our group. We met so many military families and their kids. It’s amazing how many people from all walks of life sacrifice everything to serve our country. #Grateful
