Happy Nurses Week to all of the amazing people I’ve had the honor to work with! Nurses are the heart and lifeblood of healthcare. Don’t forget to tell them how much they’re appreciated.

Completely humbled again by all of your generous donations and by this experience. Everyone was so grateful as these items are immediately making a significant impact. I explained how they were not gifts from me, but rather from my friends and patient’s families who learned about the clinic and were moved to help. Some tears were shared. Thank you to everyone who helped! There are truly no words. ❤️🇺🇬❤️ FIMRC: Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children

And I’m off! That big red suitcase is entirely filled with generous donations from so many of you. I can’t thank you enough. I hope to post some more of the trip if I can.

Thank you to everyone who inquired about donating supplies to the FIMRC medical clinic in Bududa, Uganda where I'll going in just a couple weeks! I've compiled an Amazon wish list of their top needs and will take them in my checked baggage, so I need them by April 25th.

One item I did not put on the list, but is high on theirs, is a working laptop with charger which would really help with outreach education and record keeping. Please contact me if you might have something.🤞

I can't thank everyone enough for all the support! 🇺🇬❤️

UPDATE: The wish list is empty!! Thank you so much everyone.

Here is one of my most recommended resources. As parents, we all struggle with setting limits on screen time for our children, and it can seem overwhelming to know where to begin. The AAP offers a great tool to help you build a family media plan. Check it out: https://youtu.be/mfL4L1X8iyE?t=58 https://www.healthychildren.org/english/fmp/pages/mediaplan.aspx

After more than a decade of practicing in Bryn Mawr, I will be moving closer to home to begin a new position with Nemours Children's Health in Paoli starting this June. I am so grateful for all the patients, families and staff that have allowed me the privilige of being a pediatrician. In the interim, I will be volunteering on a medical service trip to Bududa, Uganda through the Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children.
