Reality, not religion, is the reason people need MAiD-free health care. #Ableism and its “better dead than disabled” bias makes assisted dying a terrifying threat for too many people, by @mssinenomine policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/apri… via @IRPP @TrudoLemmens #disability #bioethics #MAiD
“Nursing homes have quietly become dumping grounds for people with developmental disabilities.” Another example of the travesty that is the service and protection system for children and youth in the Province. thestar.com/opinion/contri…
“Most vulnerable people, incl with developmental disabilities, can’t fight back against a system of forced care. Existing laws are not preventing this tragedy. We need education about ableism to change attitudes and be genuinely inclusive” @frankejames thestar.com/opinion/contri…
Leaders must prove their commitment to building a fairer more equitable world in which voices & contributions of women are acknowledged & amplified. #Nurses #teachers & #caregivers are mainly women who do not enjoy #genderequality. #IWD24 #walkthetalk #cdnpoli #onpoli #IWD
I’ve had more doctors offer to help my disabled son die than doctors willing to help him live. #complexcarefail

I want to pause to acknowledge every single health professional who spent time away from their own families to care for others over the holidays. As Anne Lamott says, there are only 2 prayers: Help me, help me, help me. And thank you, thank you, thank you. *Thank you.*
My medically fragile 15 yr old son made it home for Christmas after a 9 month hospital admission. Best Christmas present ever. Thanks to the team @SickKidsNews and our incredible homecare #nursing team for making this happen! #MedicalMom #caregiving #love
Thank you to all the nurses doctors paramedics and other health workers on duty over the Christmas holidays across Canada.
#Cargivers are worn out by isolation, worry & responsibility to care for their loved ones. Add in stresses of the holiday season & you have a recipe for burnout. Caregivers save #HealthSystem billions of $ a year, yet there still isn't govn't policy to formalize supports needed.

#Caregivers are told to focus on self-care because it is best weapon against burnout. This isn't true. The best weapon against burnout is transformed #HealthSystem that values us, doesn’t treat our work as disposable. Caregivers & #patients need to be co-designers of that system

Children with complex medical conditions are living a lot longer, but aging out of the system designed to support them. The dedicated multidisciplinary teams that care for children don't exist for adults, by @_joyscm theglobeandmail.com/canada/article… via @globeandmail #disability
I am a psychiatrist and Chair/Chief of psychiatry. I struggle accessing basic mental health care for myself despite my immense socioeconomic privilege. The promise of parity is broken and the human cost of our discriminatory funding model for mental healthcare is staggering.
Balancing work and care can be overwhelming for many caregivers, with impact to health, career advancement and finances. Read more about this issue in @TorontoStar. A brighter future of care is possible! @nicoledauz @LivMendelsohn #CdnCaregiving thestar.com/sponsored-sect…

Every time a woman speaks up about her experience of violence and she’s not believed, the cycle of abuse continues. Every time you hear a survivor’s story: 1-Listen. 2-Believe. 3-Support. Via @unwomenasia

As a former student activist who learned to organize with groups like Amnesty International and the March 8th Coalition, I say power to the students. Calling for a ceasefire, release of hostages, and an end to human suffering is not a criminal act. Send peace, not the police.
When we grow up shamed for having normal human reactions & experiences-- like anger, sadness, confusion, or arousal-- we eventually internalize that as shame for being, you know, human. We end up chronically apologizing for EVERYTHING we feel-- because nothing we feel, feels OK.
For the university occupy encampment actions -bravo! Likely only a matter of time that unhoused people will seek support at your location. That happened during #Occupy in Toronto necessitating health and outdoor shelter supports. @AnneMarieBatten remember? @occupyuoft

It can be a mind f*ck (that's a specialized clinical term, there) when abusers are nice to us. It can make us doubt our experience, pain, or reality. It can be helpful to step back & observe: these situations, of an abuser being nice or complimentary, often involve an audience.
Abusive people and institutions are very keen on the public believing that words like "trauma" & "abuse" have now become so hopelessly overused that you can't believe anyone when they invoke these words. Abusers count on you rolling your eyes at these terms.
"bioethical arguments against “conscientious objections” cast the objections as value-laden, uninformed, and ideological departures from standard medical practice which, by contrast, is represented as impartial, grounded in scientific inquiry, and therefore objective"
