We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history. The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy. Here are my thoughts:

This sickening horror is one man’s fault.
Turkey’s conflict in Syria took a major turn today. First alleged atrocities by Turkish-backed Arab militias, executing Kurds. US military officials tell me it's true, and they are DEEPLY concerned it opens the door to BOTH ethnic cleansing of Kurds and return of ISIS/Al-Qaeda

“If people are looking for doctors who have never made a mistake, they simply won’t find one.” Doctors are human. They make mistakes. #LearnNotBlame #smacc #Smacc2019

.@emcrit interviews with ILCOR chairs @neumar_robert and Gavin Perkins about cutting-edge cardiac arrest care. #1: Use supraglottic airway if your institution's intubation success rate is low. If you don't know yours, start measuring. #SMACC

Replying to @LizCrowe2
@LizCrowe2: "Doctors talking to me about Kubler Ross is like Me talking to Doctors about an Iron Lung." Grief is the undoing of the most precious things in our life - so how we/pts/fam do it is their own determining. "Get used to sitting in the rubble with them" #SMACC

The wonderful @MADforpeace mixes humour with heartbreaking honesty, using her story to invite us to reflect on wonderful, personal accounts of how the little things we (first responders, paramedics, doctors, nurses, physios) do as people make a huge difference. #smacc – at Sydney, New South Wales

It is a cynical abuse of power that a National Party MP announces his retirement 24 hours AFTER being elected on a National Party ticket. In the Upper House, this secures the seat for 8 years for someone no-one has ever met, nor voted on. Abuse of Parliament. #cowpervotes
