As a #familymedicine doc, I have seen multi-gen households, as well as kids taken in by older relatives to avoid one system, depend on minors to keep track of meds, to limit chance of wandering, even fulfill direct care needs. There has to be support w/o a disruption threat!

People are abducted across America & trafficked to be held in concentration camps now. Our head of state answers to no one, nothing in place checks or obstructs him. His power is becoming absolute. Critical infrastructure broken by DOGE, social supports hacked. Many cities under military occupation.

At the stage of grief where when someone asks, “How’re you doing?”, I’m not sure if they know that my dad died or they’re just being polite/friendly. The ongoing disaster implosion of society just adds to the possible answers too #tohavelovedandlostsucks #mydaddiedwhereiwork #theworldisonfire

Remember the SNAP cuts in the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill?” Children account for nearly half of the 2.4 million people who are no longer receiving SNAP in at least 19 states. The true number of kids impacted nationwide is unknown. This is horrifying. No child should go hungry.

In the last 3 weeks, my family has celebrated 3 birthdays, Mother’s Day, a baby shower and the life of a friend of 40+ years, all while my 83yo dad has been in the ICU. He is moving to a regular floor room tomorrow. We are hoping that May closes quietly. ❤️

did you know i am doing a dissertation on workplace leave use among full-time workers in the US who have experienced miscarriage? well now you do! and if you think you may be eligible, you can take a screener survey at go.uic.edu/leavestudy or scan the QR code. #reprosky #healthpolicy #miscarriage

An image of a pair of hands being held while a clipboard is in one person's lap. The text to the side indicates Participants Needed for a research study on miscarriage and workplace leave policy use among full-time workers. People are eligible to participate if they have experienced a miscarriage at or before 20 weeks gestation, 18+ years of age, they were working full-time at the time of loss, were living and working in the United States, can read and write in English, and have internet access.

Participation requires completion of an eligibility screener that takes roughly 5 minutes and if deemed eligible, will be sent an invitation to the full survey which should take up to 20 minutes. Participants can either scan a QR code or go to go.uic.edu/leavestudy

If people have questions or concerns about participating, they can contact Ashlee Van Schyndel (avansc6@uic.edu) or Dr. Alisa Velonis (avelonis@uic.edu)

Danco, the company that makes mifepristone, has filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court to temporarily restore a federal policy that allows mifepristone to be prescribed online and delivered by mail. Failing to do so would cause immediate chaos and leave patients around the country in limbo.
