DrCBurton, PhD, RN, AFN-BC, FAAN @drcburton.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Another year & I’m still amazed. I told someone that for a couple of years, I didn’t laugh. Now people know my laugh so well they use it as radar to find me. And weirdly, someone who contributed significantly to those years I didn’t laugh just told me how happy I seem. So I guess it’s sticking. 100
