I get it: you're on lockdown. You're trying to do a lot with a little. It's hard to find joy in the midst of fear, depression, and austerity. That's why it's time to learn about totwaffles. (thread)

THIS PICTURE SAYS IT ALL. Proud to be at the front-lines with my incredible colleagues. While we are all a little scared + worried about how #COVIDー19 will affect our patients, our families and us. We stand ready to fight this and win this together. Cartoon via @mluckovichajc

It’s the perfect time to utilize the skills we leverage daily in palliative care. For every interaction w/ colleagues/loved ones, there’s an opportunity to: Acknowledge / validate emotions Shine a light on fears Align with hopes Wish for the best + prepare for the worst

"I've yet to see the CEO who, while running a meeting, takes minutes, & I’ve never heard of a judge who... would also be the stenographer." Yet docs make life/death decisions while click-click-clicking & documenting useless details. What could go wrong? fortune.com/longform/medical…

Simple, radical, beautiful. "Stealing the opportunity for meaningful last words is precisely the kind of avoidable complication that ought to be visible to us in the ICU. My intubation checklist now includes this step." #hpm #meded bit.ly/2HmA53V @JAMA_current
