I have 2 boys with Dyslexia. Here is a great example of what reading is like for someone who has it. Click link to experience it. geon.github.io/programming/2…

A friend who has dyslexia described to me how she experiences reading. She can read, but it takes a lot of concentration, and the letters seems to “jump around”.

At #SXSW23 for "health/medtech track." Depressing that many/most of panels in healthcare tech involve MBAs, entrepreneurs & industry, rather than ppl who've actually seen patients. They're often promoting "optimization," "cost reduction," "ROI." Not "care."

Not going to lie, as a parent to a child with special needs, this is usually the saddest part of the report card to read. Especially the comments. Who's with me?

ER’s waiting areas need a redesign. Listen to this story. Many times I am lying on an ER triage floor in pain cause forcing me to sit only makes the pain worse. I have been picked up off the floor many times, by staff telling me I MUST sit. youtu.be/hzJo0GZqyC4
