I think I just made up a word whilst halfway dozing.
"archigent" (ARK-i-gent) n. 1) The perfect person for a job, situation, or scenario.

🧵 If you’re applauding the abolishment of the Department of Education, you need to do a little research. You have ZERO clue what the DOE actually does.
Here’s a reality check on what the Department of Education actually does:

I did a thing I would NEVER have been able to do pre ADHD diagnosis and treatment/education:
Tell my partner I am feeling overwhelmed with the amount of things on our to-do list tonight, and ask him for help prioritising.
Might seem simple, but with ADHD it isn't.

acknowledging something scares you and "living in fear" are not the same thing
cancer is scary to me. doesn't mean i have to start smoking to not "live in fear"

I'm a teacher, so I take work home with me.
These lines - no. They soon fade.
But with 1 week to go, I don't want to bring home #ChristmasFever
Usually I write about how easy it is to wear a mask. But this🧵is about how hard it is, and how to understand why others don't mask.

‼️Incredibly, 61% of adults are unaware that the ACA prohibits insurers from denying coverage to people with preexisting conditions, and 69% don’t know that the ACA also prevents sick people from being charged higher premiums than healthy people.
EDUCATE YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY!

Women and non-binary folks.
Please raise your hand 🙋🏻♀️ if you have been told to shut up or talked over by a man.
It can be online or irl. I’m just interested in how universal this experience is.
This is question for my next book, Flying not Falling.

This means your kid who survived #cancer or has asthma--1 in 8-- or even a peanut allergy is not eligible for health insurance. Vote accordingly.

Today I held a mother in my arms so she could cry her tears of frustration. She stays up all night to care for her crying kid who scratches herself until she bleeds everyday. She’s only 2 years old yet she’s spent most of her life putting creams after creams on her little body.
The kid needs Dupixent (injection). But her insurance wouldn’t cover Dupixent until she fails crisaborole. It won’t cover crisaborole until she fails tacrolimus. It won’t cover tacrolimus until she fails 2 moderate to high potency steroids.
We have to go down the “list” of creams and fail each one of them against my clinical judgement because insurance dictates what I do. It will take us months.
My patient will spend these months not sleeping. And her mother will spent these months blaming herself and worrying if she’s done anything wrong.
So today, when I prescribed more creams, the mother cried. And I know why she did. But I couldn’t speed it up more than what insurance “allows” me to.
My spoken words: “I’m so sorry. We will get her better. I promise.”
My unspoken words: I wish instead of playing the stupid, unethical, unlawful, inhumane game with the insurance companies, we could just help a child, instead.

This is the story of 16-year-old Cara who stopped wearing a mask after being bullied at school, bringing COVID home to her immunocompromised mother, who tragically died as a result.
These stories must be told and we must learn from them.
