5/ Video clips are now live on the hospital’s website: fmolhs.org/locations/grea… Full interviews will be added to LSU Libraries’ collection later this year.

We hope this archive helps us reflect, remember & move forward—with more understanding, more care & more truth.

4/ I worked closely with the hospital during the pandemic and still—what I learned through these conversations surprised me. I’m so grateful to everyone who trusted us with their stories.

3/ There were tears. There were laughs. And over and over, I heard: what stood out most was how the community came together. How we, as Louisianans, show up for each other in a disaster.

2/ I partnered with Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center and LSU to collect stories from hospital staff—execs, doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists and more—about how they faced the pandemic.

In July & August 2024, I interviewed 30 hospital staff.

Would love to see the underlying polling! @joshtpm.bsky.social

@mamacocodrie.bsky.social sounds like we should talk!

With this additional context…

Bummer! Will keep an eye out in case you reopen.

Are you still accepting submissions by chance? 🙏🏻 I’m based at LSU - do you already have a chapter on the dismal state of emergency contraception access on many college campuses?
