The most feel-good thing I've seen all week


Yesterday, someone at work shared this photo snapped by a friend's sister, a nurse in the emergency department at Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey. The man standing at the glass doors of the ER is holding a sign that reads: "Thank you all in Emergency for saving my wife's life. I love you all." The staff there doesn't yet know who the man is.

I sat on our couch last night and just stared at this man and his sign. CNN was on in the background, and as experts spoke about the growing number of people stricken with the coronavirus and growing concern about lack of equipment, it felt so heartening to know that just this one woman had been saved. It felt good to consider the waves of gratitude I've been seeing coming toward healthcare workers. That little bit of good news was major.

I continue to beam good health vibes at all of you.
