I'm just a SJW in training trying to make ends meet while finishing my degree. I want to shed light onto some important issues that are often overlooked in our world. I'm totally open to talking to you all about anything you want to know.

Dear Healthcare Providers
Dear Dr. K., Dr. M., Dr. P., When I was a kid, I thought I could never be like you. You who put my grandma on a waitlist to get better. She was almost there, but then she passed away because you didn’t see that there was something wrong with her. You who failed to see that my mom had a severe kidney infection and sent her home, only to have her come back in a few days in severe pain and needing to be hospitalized overnight. You who refused to see my godmother when she was pregnant because she was “too high risk”. You could have said your caseload was full but you belittled her and made her feel unfit until she ran out crying. You who denied giving me birth control because “the condom gets the job done”, ignoring the pain I was in when menstruating.
