May every child that dies under my care, die with dignity. And may all those that live, live with the best possible outcomes. That is my everyday prayer. #banabarona #ourchildrenmatter #peditriccriticalcare #gracedforthis #livingthesurrender #onedayatatime #onechildatatime

My child was a bully ko primary. When I was told, I went to his class and had the students he bullied come and he had to apologize to each child individually. I also got him the help he needed and we addressed why he was aggressive. Heโ€™s the protector now. Parents, you can help.

I went to his school and we had a class meeting. Listened to the stories of the kids heโ€™d bullied and made him apologize to them one by one. That was 2 years ago.Addressed his learning disability where his anger came from, and you wouldnโ€™t believe he is the same kid. A protector.

Diarrhea kills. If your child is vomiting and canโ€™t keep fluid down, if the diarrhea is constant, if they canโ€™t drink at least 10ml per body weight in fluid per stool, or if theyโ€™re weak and their heart is racing, SEEK HELP IMMEDIATELY.

If you have anxiety or panic attacks and happen to have some ice around, put it in a basin with water and dunk your face in it for more than 5seconds. This is a vagal maneuver and stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system(the rest and repose part). Try it.See if it works๐Ÿคž๐Ÿพ

I believe in divorce. Growing up in a home fraught with physical, verbal and emotional toxicity left me wounded to this day. Iโ€™m still unpacking the trauma and only now understanding how deeply it affected me and the trajectory of my life. I beg you. If itโ€™s now working, LEAVE.

Just FYIโ€ฆ You donโ€™t get diabetes from eating too much sugar. How much sugar you consume has absolutely NOTHING to do with whether or not you get diabetes. Diabetes is a problem with insulin and your bodyโ€™s inability to to properly utilize and manage sugar (and other things) ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ

A tip for my girlies with anemia๐Ÿฉธ: cook with molasses. Put them in your sauces, stews, soups, healthy smoothies, marinates, etcโ€ฆ I find it hard to take molasses alone, so hiding them in things helps ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿค›๐Ÿพ

This is a normal chest X ray. The black things on either side are the lungs filled with air. White round thing in the middle is the heart. Lines across are the ribs. The lungs are well expanded.

I have seen and been a part of a lot of death. Iโ€™ve switched on and switched off life support. Iโ€™ve said yes or no to continuing life saving interventions. Iโ€™ve told parents of their childrenโ€™s passing. Iโ€™ve mourned. This part of my life has been incredibly lonely. But God ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

People are dying. Young people with no comorbidities. People are sick sick. On oxygen. On pressure support. On ventilators. Healthcare workers are bone tired. And itโ€™s only just reached us. We are sad. Deeply sorrowful. There are no words to explain it.

Leave Botswana guys ๐Ÿ˜‰ Go abroad. Have your own experience. Tell your own story. It will definitely be the hardest of times and the best of times. Everything is true: itโ€™s both good AND bad. In totality, I hope itโ€™s worth it for you ๐Ÿ’–

I do not subscribe to the notion of "the voiceless." I'd argue that folks have been "the unheard."

This is my life. This is how I feel when children survive the ICU. This is my work. Every day. I treat critically ill children and teach others how to treat critically ill children. Iโ€™m a bridge. Optimal survival is the goal.

My angel mom died of ovarian cancer 10 years ago. She didnโ€™t fight. She didnโ€™t want to fight. She was diagnosed on a Friday. Dr Mompati told me the diagnosis as I was sitting at JFK airport in NYC boarding a plane home. She died the next Friday. What a woman! Unparalleled ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’–

HIV is NOT a death sentence. Itโ€™s a chronic and manageable infection. You can be HIV+ and live a full life. In 2022, there is no reason to have babies routinely born HIV+. None whatsoever ๐Ÿ˜ฅ Please test. And if youโ€™re +, take your meds as instructed. Be compliant. ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ˜ข
