#love #CML Despite a dismal 10-per-cent expectation of survival, there once was a mom who took a shot. Her son is now a man. Ask her now what she would have done with even worse odds, and she’ll tell you that she would have still tried. @cmlnet

“In his own practice, Chochinov has seen family members kept out of hospitals and nursing homes because of safety protocols, forced to let their loved ones die alone. A year later, he describes them as still being “emotionally broken.”
@SolidFooting @UnityHealthTO @HDGHWindsor @KafferJkaffer @jenzelmer @HE_ES_Canada GRIEF DURING COVID:
For many, the losing a loved one over the course of the last 14 months has been especially challenging.

When I spell my name in hospital, I’m met with “Wow, that’s too hard - you’ll have to shorten that name when you become a Doctor.”
I usually get embarrassed & not respond, but finally had the courage to say: “I’ll just teach my patients to pronounce it.” BIPOC and proud💪🏾 #MedEd – at Thunder Bay, Ontario
