A non-medical friend recently asked me to describe clinic. I told her to imagine you have 20 meetings in a day, half of them new clients with urgent needs. Each requires your best self. You are late for at least 10 of them. You must prepare a report and deliverables for each one.

Was in Zoom heaven today: @NanetteWenger’s commanding and inspiring keynote for McGill CV Research Day: how far we’ve come since the original CVD guidelines for women (on how to take of their husbands post-MI) and how far we still have to go @McGill_DOM @CardioMcgill

Then a beautiful, masterful talk by @LingardLorelei for @IHSE_McGill “Story, Not Study: how to write manuscripts that readers can’t put down!" Favorite quote (many memorable ones): ““Writing is thinking. To write well is to think clearly. That’s why it’s so hard.” D. McCullough

To end the day, @TalBenShahar on “Happiness in Difficult Times.” Take home for me: Stress is not the problem; lack of recovery is the problem (think weight training and muscle stress/recovery/growth). Looking forward to some recovery this weekend!

Rest in power Dr Bernard Lown 1921-2021. You have left the world with the defibrillator, the CCU, and perhaps saved us from nuclear war - but most importantly you taught generations of trainees to “do more FOR our patients and less TO them”. We have lost a giant today.

After IRB approval, the authors demonstrate that an Apple iPhone 12 brought into immediate proximity to Medtronic ICD will suspend tachy therapies (figure). The ICD community should be aware of this interaction, and include this in pt counseling. heartrhythmjournal.com/artic…

Sometimes you read your own work and relive an experience. I had almost forgotten that I had written this. I relived that night, the 1 am phonecall, and the fateful fever nytimes.com/2017/10/24/magaz…
