I wrote a essay about the grim way being a mom in America is depicted today, and how women weighing parenthood struggle to absorb all these chilling warnings, statistics, and cautionary tales.
It’s an essay about dread, but also hope and maybe change.

Happy first Health Day at #COP28!
It is well overdue. For too long, health has been a footnote in climate discussions.
No more.
I thank sincerely the UAE 🇦🇪 for taking this historic step and making health central to its COP28 Presidency.

25 million lives saved thanks to Americans - thanks to @PEPFAR!
Thanks @U2 and @SphereVegas for this #WorldAIDSDay reminder of how much we've accomplished - and how far we still have to go.
Let's #ReauthorizePEPFAR and #EndAIDS.
