My kid and her friends saw an obviously neglected Bassett Hound being discarded by its handler at the dog park in Brooklyn today. Please read the GoFundMe and if you can help, it would be very much appreciated. gofundme.com/f/abandoned-dog…

As President of ARDS Foundation, those I have been hearing from recently in ARDS crisis are people who have NOT gotten the CoVID vaccines, got CoVID, then ARDS and are critically ill, fighting for their life. Please - it is so important to get your vaccine. @ArdsGlobal
I am so worried for these patients. And I can’t help but think about heir short would be so different if they had just got their vaccine. I know we have too many ARDS patients as it is, but keep thinking the CoVID ARDS cases can be preventable. I am so sad for those w #ARDS

I've been trying to help unvaccinated people with their remorse when they land in the hospital/ICU with COVID. "You can use this illness to help your friends and family get vaccinated" seems to resonate. No need to rub people's noses in mistakes--look to what good can come.
New book about ARDS and Delirium.

Got a consult for a patient in the #ICU who is intubated and awake.
“Please help this patient communicate. He needs to wish his wife a happy anniversary.”
I love #Residents.

ARDS Community: I am happy to announce that I was able to get my first CoVID vaccine this afternoon.
I urge all ARDS survivors who are able to, to get your vaccine, unless there is a medical reason that you should not. Eileen

When I was first out of the hospital after 9 weeks from #sepsis and #ARDS, I remember always thinking "2 steps forward, 1 step back." I kept my expectations reasonable and never got too upset over lack of progress. #VoiceOfArds #FightingForEveryBreath #ICU

I had music on nonstop in the ICU. It was calming, grounding & entertaining. I hope music is incorporated into care to help w/ #delirium, #mentalhealth & improve patient outcomes.

#Sepsis & #ARDS = family disease. Every pore of the entire family has been invaded. No one is spared. Pt’s spouses have PTSD, too. Kids have anxiety & suffer fear of abandonment.
