Unfortunately, yes. They didn't mean it in the way that it sounds, but it still stung.

On the worst day of someone's life, your words have the power to further traumatize or to bring whatever comfort can be found. Choose carefully.

You may not remember the encounter. They never forget it. **"I would have liked it better if you had seen him collapse."** One sentence can echo in someone’s mind for years. Be intentional, especially when things are hard.

Small kindnesses become lifelines. An offer of a warm blanket. A referral to a social worker. A kind, “How are you holding up?” These are remembered more than clinical details. They tell the co-survivor that someone sees and understands their pain, and they will be cared for, too.

Lady Glaucomflecken @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

The co-survivor's world is cracked open by the thought of losing the person they love, the responsibilities that now fall on them, and the weight of making decisions while traumatized or grieving. The illness may not be contained in their body, but they are suffering from it, too.

Lady Glaucomflecken @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

Co-survivors are navigating trauma of their own. When a patient faces a critical illness, so do the patient's closest loved ones. If a person is accompanying someone to an oncology ward or an ICU, their two bodies might be separate, but their lives are most likely intertwined.

Lady Glaucomflecken @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

Healthcare professionals are trained to focus on the patient during a critical illness. After all, they inhabit the body that contains the wound, the dysfunction, the disease that threatens their life. But there’s someone else in the room who has been deeply affected by the very same pathology.

Teared up at @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social & @glaucomflecken.bsky.social written reflection on his 2020 cardiac arrest. “Even if our individual memories are stuck in our own heads, the trauma – and the healing – are collective.” Such an imp truth for patients AND healthcare workers. #adverseevents

I had a great time talking with 2 of the best people on social media - the most badass duo of @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social and @glaucomflecken.bsky.social - about why fighting misinformation still matters! And of course, fentanyl fentanyl fentanyl. Cause we are sadly not done hearing about fentanyl.

Thinking about physician well-being a lot lately. #Medsky, what would have to be true for you to experience less burnout, depression, anxiety, etc.? Even if it is impossible, I’m curious what it would be.

I feel very lucky to have heard @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social speak today. She told the incredibly powerful and moving story of saving her husband’s life with humor and tenderness. The whole office was in tears. Co-survivors are lucky to have her as an advocate.

Oh, not that one. I am referring to “quiet” in a healthcare setting.

Lady Glaucomflecken @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social · 11/01/2025

Quiet. If healthcare workers say it’s quiet during a shift, it’s jokingly-not-jokingly considered tempting fate.

Is there a term that comes to mind for things you’re not supposed to do or say in medicine? For example, “the Q-word” #medsky

My favorite part is obviously seeing @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social & @glaucomflecken.bsky.social But the next best part is explaining to my non-med husband why/who people are wearing helmets and 🦄 headbands #WifeAndDeath

There is still so much beauty in the world. Love. Light. In hard times, the world keeps spinning, cruelly. People keep dying, living, being born. The cosmos doesn’t know to crumble. Even when the light evades our leaders, we carry it ourselves. We ignite each other. We burn.

As long as making me feel at home doesn't involve any medical crises.
