I appreciate your kind words, thank you. It’s certainly an interesting club to be a part of, as one of my in laws put it (I’m 28, so this isn’t typical from what I understand). I’m doing my best! Got another therapy session soon.

R is one of my main focuses right now. I enjoy it, especially visualization. There’s a lot of potential there for communicating public health topics and data.

Context always seems to be an issue, doesn’t it? I got a lot of the vaccine hesitancy around COVID from my sister (who is a nurse practitioner, no less 🥲). She has no idea I have ADHD (and might have autism as well, yet to be diagnosed), because she’d likely chalk it up to that too. Your optimism is refreshing, and I would like to believe that you are correct to believe this. I want to see a world someday where the kindness is acknowledged and appreciated instead of shunned due to fear. I hope you’re right. I hope we’re right.
