Today in our household, we are celebrating Hot Dog Day.

Assistant #1 works at an organization that helps people access essential health care, and that work just got a lot harder.

Her org won’t be catastrophically impacted (this time). But many others across the country will be. Which means a lot of people, especially those already facing the most barriers, will lose access to care they need and deserve.

So today, we’re grateful for the people fighting to make things better.
Sad (and mad) that they have to fight so hard.
Proud of the progress they've made.

And still hoping we can build something more worthy of celebration.

I will be eating a hot dog. But I’m dedicating it to resilience.

The world feels unfair too often. But posts like this remind me there are still people showing up with heart.
