Thank you @JAMANetwork + @PreetiNMalani for publishing this. I wrote this for the #womeninmedicine who came before me + all those who will come after me. I also wrote this for my daughter- who I hope will 1 day understand why I sometimes miss bedtime

Today I woke up sad. My 3 YO asked “Why are you sad, mommy?” I explained that we had the chance to have our first female president, and instead we elected Donald Trump. She asked, “Why?” And I didn’t even know where to begin. #KamalaHarris

My 3 YO has been pushing me away. It happens during weeks when I’m in the #pedsICU + miss our morning/bedtime routine. Today I kissed her before school + let her know I’d see her again tomorrow because I’m working late tonight. She replied, “Thank you for working, mommy.” ♥️🥹

AI is good… but after this last week of service, I feel confident that AI cannot replace the importance of human connection thru physical touch + the presence to simply bear witness. #pedsICU
