Stepped away from my work laptop for a 30-second coffee refill and came back to this @Google search, courtesy of our stealthy 8-year-old. ✨ A perfect reminder to stay curious and appreciate the unexpected moments that bring delight and perspective. #WorkLifeIntegration #ProfessionalWellbeing

3/ As we recognize family caregivers this #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth, calling on my legislators Rep Andy Ogles and Sen Marsha Blackburn & Sen Bill Hagerty - grateful for your support of Tennesseans with #cancer and their families in the upcoming 119th Congress! #Cancer Advocacy for the win!

2/ Most family #caregivers aren't in #healthcare. They step up to learn medical care - giving meds, monitoring for drug side effects, coordinating care, managing pain, nausea & other #cancer symptoms while managing finances, assisting w personal care, and offering endless emotional & social support.

1/ #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth Honoring the unsung heroes, the BACKBONE of our US healthcare system: the silent army of family caregivers
🔸~6M+ Americans provide unpaid cancer care equaling $5.5B annually
🔸They spend ~32.9 hrs/wk in cancer caregiving and HALF of them work ~35 hrs/wk in paid job!

🙋‍♀️ please!
