I'd tell my younger self to relax and trust a little more. There are allies and angels everywhere if you'll only let them in.

Had the pleasure to see his Lt. Dan Band play a twilight gig for thousands of veterans yesterday. Famous for "CSI New York" and Lt. Dan in "Forrest Gump," Sinise was caregiver for both his wife and son going through cancer at the same time. Mac Sinise passed away in 2024 at 33 years old.

Mark's Walking Wheelchair: Inventor Jake Laser mounted a wheelchair on a walking robot for his father, engineering prof. and former marathoner Mark Laser. At first I smelled BS, but take a look — it's amazing!

When new to MS, I went heavy on meds to fight urgency & stay working, but no info about Kegels, etc. Eventually turned my bladder to a Triscuit & went to ER with +103° temp. Checked out a month later, permanently in a scooter. Wish I'd known more about pelvic floor exercise, etc.

Something I've learned as a nervous system educator working with parents and caregivers: healing generational trauma doesn't happen in one big breakthrough moment. It happens in small, unglamorous choices a breath before you react, a pattern you notice and interrupt just once.
If you're a parent or caregiver trying to raise a child differently than you were raised, you're doing harder work than people realize. It's okay if it's messy. It's okay if you don't get it right every time. Noticing the pattern is already the beginning of changing it. #Parenting #generati #Trauma Informed #Caregivers
