Today as we honor those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our country, I recall running at the San Francisco Rock and Roll Half Marathon and their great tradition of honoring our fallen military men and women. It was inspiring as well as emotionally moving to run up Lincoln Blvd, struggling up hill, giving everything you got, in the presence of the memories (portraits) of a number of our military heroes. I felt inspired to give my awe as they did and realized that whatever I was experiencing running up a steep hill for one and a half miles was nothing compared to what they did and that I had little excuse to not do better. Simultaneously, I mourned for these heroes even though I did not know them. Physically and emotionally it was a struggle and I ended up with an experience and a race that I could be proud of and relish.

Thank you military heroes, not only for a great race, but for our country and our way of life. We honor you.

We are proud of South San Francisco's very own Ret. Cdr Darlene Iskra. Thank you for all your service to our country and congratulations on this recognition by the Gary Sinese Foundation.

This , we honor Commander Darlene Iskra who made history as the first woman to command a U.S. Navy ship—and she didn’t stop there.

During her 21 years of service, she not only broke barriers but stood ready in times of conflict. Just weeks after taking command, the Gulf War began, and she and her crew were quickly called into action near the Suez Canal to safeguard critical waterways.

Through it all, Commander Iskra led with strength and determination, earning worldwide attention and inspiring generations of women to follow in her footsteps.

Today, in addition to her military legacy, she continues to educate and empower as the author of Breaking Through the Brass Ceiling and Women in the United States Armed Forces: A Guide to the Issues.

Thank you, Commander Iskra, for showing us what leadership and courage look like at sea and beyond. ⚓️🇺🇸

Heard a delightful story yesterday. A patient of mine was taking his elderly mother to the hospital for extreme back pain. She was unsure whether or not to try chiropractic care. While she was getting some imaging performed, her son mentioned that she should consult with Dr. Soohoo later. The xray tech overheard the conversation and said that she sees Dr. Soohoo as well, then another xray tech echoed the first tech's words. Then there was a chorus of praises for me. The only thing missing was a ray of sunshine appearing with a celestial choir in the background.😇😆

It's always heartwarming to have a positive impact on people and even more of an honor when they entrust the well-being of their family and friends to my care. I LOVE my patients!❤️
