My photo library is sometimes an emotional trigger. Go to find a specific waterfall photo and end up in the year that the kid had two emergency brain surgeries, which lead to finding a hole in his heart, followed by open heart surgery, then he and I taking a giant trip out West, seeing the eclipse on the way back, getting our two crazy kittens, along with way more mt biking and explorations than one would expect in such a scary and crazy year.
I am SOOOO happy none of that happened in the last three years.

I will be happy if surgical wait times get reduced... but don't kid yourself... this transfer of responsibility to a third party, for profit, co. IS the privatization of healthcare.
In NS now, for profit companies take our calls, lets us talk to nurses (811), access virtual care, perform some surgeries... it is growing and you should be yelling about it!

Next was a fantastic talk by Daniel Hashimoto on building teams for surgical translation of #AI at the #GRASPLab. This is a fascinating tour of the history of surgical technology, #data collection, and modern tools. Beyond that, the new approaches being applied to surgical understanding are compelling, and represent an excellent fusion of technology, management, and #medicine. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvuxkof8tRY (6/10) #surgery #bioethics

"The system has already been significantly undermined, as lengthening wait times for #surgery and overwhelmed #emergency departments starkly reveal. In our #unions and communities, an iron clad resolve to beat back this attack must be forged. If we can’t unleash the #workingclass power needed to prevent the destruction of #publichealthcare what can we hope to defend?"

I don't know about other surgeries, but once you've had #surgery for #BreastCancer there are exercises you're supposed to do for the rest of your life.
Since I've slacked off mine recently, I'm reminding you that you should do yours too.
Hi everyone. Hope someone have missed me here. I was in hospital till yesterday. Had surgery,I had my right gland removed. Have been dealing with this sickness for a couple of years. Hoping to get better now. #Today #everyone #Surgery #hospital #gland #removed #sick #Sickness

out loud, they said they gave me Tylenol, but in writing, they said they gave me ibuprofen. even though my voice and chart clearly say no NSAIDs. Based on the stomach pain, I’m gonna guess it’s the ibuprofen. On an empty stomach, no less. because you know I needed to literally add injury to injury...to injury...
Got 5am kitty snuggles, he *really* wanted to climb back on me and go back to sleep. Me too, buddy, me too. But #surgery day. :/
I had left phacoemulsification + IOL on Tuesday and am finding the post operative anisometropia very challenging. Thankfully healing seems to be going well and the antibiotic/steroid and glaucoma drops are becoming less painful to instil each time. Does anyone have any tips for coping? I think my few remaining brain cells are being fried attempting to cope with my new visual reality 😮

New Hip Day 4.
No pain in the joint or at the incision. Walking almost normally, but still using the walker for crash prevention.
A lot of sharp stabbing pain in the top thigh and I'm not sure why. I will call the docs office just to see what it means and if there is a way to reduce it.
Good p.t. session today.
New Hip Day 3
I kept the ice on the leg most of the day and that reduced the swelling. Gait has improved with the walker. Exercises are going well.
The plan is to go back to my at home desk job tomorrow.
Our some came by for dinner and to help out with some chores. That's great medicine.
Tillamook ice cream for dessert!
