We have lost touch with our staff in Gaza, with health facilities, health workers and the rest of our humanitarian partners on the ground.
This siege makes me gravely concerned for their safety and the immediate health risks of vulnerable patients.
We urge immediate protection of all civilians and full humanitarian access.
We are so excited for #ShabbyStrong to begin a new adventure @thebuckeyeranch. So much gratitude for for the OG Team who has supported us over the past five years & for @TVillageNetwork, @NeuroSequential and @ThinkKids which have been lifesavers 💖 @BDPerry @stuartablon

All for self care, AND when advocacy and your own kid’s need overlap…. vacation #ShabbyStrong style. 💕💖 #MentalHealthisPublicHealth #OhioRise #OnOurSleeves
If you know me at all IRL, you know this was painful… but so worth it to raise awareness about the adolescent mental health needs in Ohio (and across the nation). #ShabbyStrong @pbsnewshour Thank you for advocating for our kiddos 💗

#ShabbyStrong got a sneaky grin & says “They no wash my plate. I throw away. Look, I have new color plate & cup now!” This kid. Her advocacy skills are on point…. She often uses her words, but when that’s not working, she finds another way. @BDPerry @stuartablon

International Overdose Day is a painful reminder to so many families across Ohio. As we mourn those we’ve lost and seek to help those struggling with addiction, we must keep working to #EndOverdose in our communities.
Yesterday, #ShabbyStrong told me a hard story & led the problem-solving. As we chatted, I thanked her for her patience & for her permission to use her story to help the other kids. She just beamed & says, “I so proud I help the all kids” @BDPerry @stuartablon @TVillageNetwork
Emergency safety proofing. Round one of removing access to items historically used for self-harm. Maybe there will be time to clean later 🥺
Tomorrow, it is expected that they will either force discharge of #ShabbyStrong or report me to Children’s Services. I am honored w/ the privilege of an amazing team & just the right moment in politics; maybe we can cause good trouble.
May we make the system better.
Team #ShabbyStrong is grateful to share our story & celebrate the 1st anniversary of #OhioRise. Thank you to the agencies who have funded & supported our journey & for the brilliant clinical work & research of @TVillageNetwork , @NeuroSequential, & @ThinkKids
#ShabbyStrong: 21 days inpatient…. 3:00 p.m discharge 🎉 … 3:00 a.m back to ER…. Being transported to larger ER with ICU. @BDPerry Nobody understands what complex is doing to this kid like you do.

In addition to being on the frontlines of land degradation and climate change impacts, women should also be at the forefront of global efforts to restore land back to health & boost drought resilience.

I stand by, fighting like hell for #ShabbyStrong who’s back inpatient, as I watch three years of hard work slip away. To see what just a few months of inadequate care has done for her brings me to the darkest of days. CMR is lower now than 04.2022 @BDPerry
#ShabbyStrong has advocated for her needs like a rock star…. It took literal trauma, but we are grateful for her to be in her new home. @BDPerry @NeuroSequential PS. She says thanks for helping, Dr. Berry 😊💖
🧵 They took a walk… not a stroll…Its a hard foot strike with every single step…. It’s at a pace of 80 beats per minute…she knows that walk… it’s her safety net. Regulate. Then kiddo talked and the staff listened. Relate. Then, staff coaxed her back inside. Reason.…
