Not being in the ICU at this time… I do not know at which point is “enough”…
I have always worked with Oncology and End of Life patients and families… having said that I support these heard decisions health care providers must make. Thank you

My daughter is a consultant in palliative care. She is passionate about her work and I know she will give her all to whatever challenges will face her. To say I’m proud of her is an understatement. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to every NHS worker. We couldn’t do this without you.

Our daughter, Jennifer is also in this field. Has had such love and compassion serving the Veterans of our country who have come back from battle. Now she is facing the battle against this horrible enemy and not running from it but towards it. May Our Father God protect our health care providers and first responders with His outstretched arm.

Thank you for that suggestion. I have added the text of the captions in each frame from the article to the “alt text” for each image. (This should allow it to be read by ‘text to voice’ applications.) It’s not a perfect solution, but hope that it helps!!!

I saw this when you first posted it. It was my introduction to your work. Rereading it now, it reminds me of what I have to do every day, to step back and breathe and care for the patients and those also caring for the patients. Thank you.

Thanks so much for the kind feedback! I had hoped this piece would not still be relevant 8 months late, but sadly we still find ourselves in the thick of it. Stay well.
