Who counts as a “professional” now? Recent US loan rule changes keep a tiny list of fields (medicine, law, etc.) as “professional” and push out nursing, SLP, social work, education, public health + more. That shrinks equity-focused career pipelines. #healthequity #studentloans #STEMM

Operationalized medical racism is when you are given a discharge notice at 6:30 PM on a Saturday that was "written" at 9:30 AM and told you have to appeal to insurance by noon the next day. However, there is no clarity on the number and they signed it as self when I refused to sign. Document it all.

I came to the orthopedic surgeon about my right hip, and will have an MRI late December. I left with additional hardware since I tweaked my left knee on Monday just walking. I hope the knee can resolve before I return to PT.

A walk through Tubes Square after a podcast recording and then I hit up the Empanada Mama in Hells Kitchen. I love these empanadas but I try to not come here very often.

At FLASCO Breaking Barriers Summit, I was asked how to address #misinformation in the #socialmedia for cancer education. Part of my response was you can't control what others do, but you can control your content and be certain that it is factual and accurate.

I had breakfast with a friend at the Waffle House in Miami Gardens. The food and service were great, but I didn't see any chairs flying. And she was giving me the evil eye, so I had to stop recording before I started laughing
