Register to be an Organ, Eye and Tissue Donor More than 100,000 people are waiting for a lifesaving transplant. Register today

Our toddler is happy, healthy & thriving because of a donor. We are beyond grateful every day. Today happens to be #NationalDonorDay - which means it’s a perfect day to register as an organ donor at registerme.org if you haven’t already.

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

I won’t ever take vaccines - or my daughter’s health - for granted. She still can’t get live vaccines because of immunosuppressants, so when you protect your baby, you’re also protecting mine.

My daughter was in severe heart failure the first 6 months of her life & too sick for vaccines. Transplant saved her life. A year later, we were finally able to start vaccinating. After feeling so helpless watching her fight for her life, I was grateful to do something that keeps her healthy & safe.

As the mom of a medically complex child, this absolutely boggles my mind. Having my daughter made me appreciate public health & medical science on a whole different level. I can’t imagine gutting institutions that directly help our daughter & countless other kids like her every day.

Can anyone stop President Musk? A republic, if you can keep it.

Freeze of US foreign aid assistance will result in humanitarian disaster Loss of services supported by USAID will affect millions of the world’s most vulnerable people

The loss of services supported by USAID will affect millions of the world’s most vulnerable people.

Here's our statement on how the freeze of US foreign aid assistance will result in humanitarian disaster: www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/freez...

At 29 weeks pregnant, we learned my daughter had severe CHD. She had a heart transplant at 6 months & is now a thriving toddler. But she is immunosuppressed & can’t get live vaccines like MMR - she relies on herd immunity. Our family needs a strong public health system and we are terrified of #RFK.
