Thanks for coming to @HBKidsHospital to cover this amazing full-circle story @TheNoorIbrahim.
‘Full circle:’ Former patient at Holland Bloorview returns as social worker. In a twist of fate, the Toronto woman ended up working on the same unit as one of her former caregivers. Now, she says her turn has come to give back. READ/WATCH: globalnews.ca/news/10245542/…

What a gorgeous piece of reporting @AmandaMoMorris. Your article had me crying, laughing...and everything in between. What a testament to the transformative power of #AI to be a force for good for people with #disabilities who have been able to get their voices back.
I’ve been working for months on this story and I’m so proud to see it published today. I could not be more grateful to the people I interviewed with ALS, who let me into their lives and trusted me to tell their stories. washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

This interview should stop you in your tracks. It should stop all of us. The sheer grace, courage and resolve of this bereaved mother will take your breath away. Let her words sink in and, please, demand better from our elected officials to bring about change. @CBCTheNational
Her teenage son was killed by a stranger at a subway station and she’s speaking out in hopes that something will change to end the violence.

Can’t believe it’s been exactly 3 years since ⁦@WHO⁩ declared #COVID19 pandemic. (*and so grateful that I don’t need to wash my bananas 🍌 and Lysol wipe my groceries anymore — or was that just me? 😜)
