Literally a few days after the tragedy in Uvalde, three people were injured in a shooting after a graduation event here in Honolulu. What in the actual fuck??!!😳
My heart is broken for the innocent lives lost in Uvalde. This is some fucked up new normal…the grief is real😥

Wrote this poem several months ago and it echoed inside me today. Sometimes we have no words. And sometimes words are all we have.

On #WorldStrokeDay we are highlighting the importance of knowing the signs of stroke and seeking emergency medical care. Face drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulty means time to get emergency medical help. Every second counts, save brain cells, save #Precioustime

As #AAPIHM ends we'd like to remind you all that your power is not limited to 31 days. Stay safe, practice self care, and remember that Asians and Pacific Islanders -- wherever we are -- always matter and our voices should ALWAYS be heard, every day of every month of every year.
All gave some, but some gave all. In honor of those who made the ultimate sacrifice, we honor them today…
We all deserve a community of support - a community that validates our experiences and supports our #AANHPIMentalHealth

It's heartbreaking to see so many of our Asian American health care colleagues fighting two viruses at once: #COVID19 and racism. I'm grateful for their commitment to serving others despite the hatred they face.
