I admitted a patient last night who was severely ill and rejected from another institution. The relative asked how much longer I will be working. On finding out, she came back this morning and brought me soup in gratitude, and because I had to work all night with no food.
We are in denial of how carb loaded our local meals are. Portion sizes are also too big. You really don’t need to eat 3 dumplings, 3 fingers of green banana and 3 pieces of yam in one sitting.
Cut back.
If u know me, u know I’m a home maker. I’ll clean the house, do laundry, prepare 3 meals daily, the works. I’d give up the professional life in a heartbeat for this with kids. However, there r men who believe women should do all this & still be 9-5 professionals & providers. NO.
I hate feeling forced to leave this country to earn a livable salary. The fact that I don’t want to leave but I have no choice. The fact that I don’t want to take my knowledge, skills, experience to build another country, but I am.
Sad, very sad.

I swabbed a little old man today and he said, “me nuh go nowhere. Me just stay in my room.”
I could cry. Poor man was so distraught as to how he could catch COVID.
You can love your country and want to go elsewhere for better, or simply for opportunities your country just cannot provide.
The way some of you talk makes me know YOU don’t want better for your people.
I’m a public hospital dr who works 6 days per week. I don’t have kids. I NEVER work from home. Explain to me who is at my home using my electricity when I’m not there??? Why is my bill increased by 50%??One size does not fit all!
@myJPSonline
is exploiting hard working people.
I have been outright denied an opportunity in Jamaica because I’m black. Said exact as is.
Just because you haven’t experienced something first hand or seen it happen, doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
On a serious note,
@Nike
you should be wiser about who you choose to promote and what they will do for your brand. Now look at that, your sponsor cursing in an international interview. It is distasteful and I’m sure you’re not surprised.
Dear women.
If you have desires to get married and/or have a child, please let go of a man who wants neither. You are not getting any younger, and he most likely won’t change his mind.

Me.
One thing the pandemic has taught me is to protect my peace. If something/someone doesn’t add positively to my life and goals, the effort for interaction is pointless.
Seriously guys, I know we’re all excited, but please try and exercise some restraint. Don’t forget all the hygienic protocols that got us to this point.
My homegirls in the hospitals are tired.
Fly the gate when a speck of us are fully vaccinated, Delta variant is lurking, and about 100 drs may be out of a job come next week.
No science, no data, just vibes.
Patients discharged from COVID ward keep asking where do they settle their bill. We tell them it’s free, & they’re so shocked. One pt, post review said he can’t believe all this is free & he feels guilty not paying. Today one asked “how does the hospital afford if it’s free?”
Get vaccinated guys. We wouldn’t be pushing something that’s knowingly bad for u. I personally would never. I care abt my pts & the ppl of this country that I serve too much to not want better for their health & livelihood. I can’t force any1 but I assure there’s no hidden agenda
"Me 'fraid fi go a road! Them a threaten me!"

Man, I’m so proud of
@RushCam
. He is the true definition of what an “influencer” should be. He is really the standard for Jamaican influencers. Top tier.
The gov can’t win. Last yr when they were strict with closing down places of entertainment & locking down parishes etc, ppl bawl. They tried 2 meet halfway, & ppl abuse th lil’ freedom. Ppl watched th numbers going up & didn’t care 2 adhere. Y must they have whips over ur backs?
You won’t die if you don’t get to hang out with your friends for a weekend.
You won’t die if you can’t have a bday dinner.
You just might die if you get a severe course of COVID.
Ppl really missing the point. Her team is underestimating the pull of a Caribbean/Jamaican flare to the music. Until u become a true pop artist, capitalize on that extra J’can edge in the music; either with the beats or the vocals. That’s how they introduced Rih & transitioned.
Why are you all now crying over the numbers?
When your friends were gallivanting at hotel lobbies and sports bars, what did you do? Turn a blind eye.
When HCW are crying out to u about the state of the health sys, what did you do in any small way to play ur part?
Them serious bro. Some years ago I was at a certain supermarket & the guy didn’t care to pack my items until someone in the line said, “Hi Dr. Johnson”. I kindly told him I’ll pack my bag myself, with my old t-shirt & messy hair. ‘Cause why am I dressing up to go buy groceries?
After what I saw in that last wave with Delta variant, if Omicron variant hits Jamaica, it’s over. That’s the sad truth, not fear-mongering; reality.
Do what u want with this.
I will leave one important word today.
Do good, not for the accolades, not for the social media hype, not for the reward, but because you genuinely care. It is an ungrateful world, but the ppl you genuinely helped will always be grateful. It won’t be a question.
Tired to say it, if you want to lose weight, drinking fruit smoothies every day, or going on a fruit diet is not it. Unless your smoothies contain only berries which are low carb.
Fruits have SUGAR. Most times when u make a smoothie, u consume more that you would actually eat.
I submitted an invoice for something to a shipping company that was under US $50 even before the Amazon discount & company claimed that customs ignored it and still charged me. Pulled up to the place and clicked the Amazon link to prove it was under $50.
Customs can gweh!
All I want is that all the doctors who are still unemployed to be working come September 1, 2020. It would be great if they could start tmrw to fill the gaps, but hey....
If it’s one time to stay put, it’s now. STAY HOME if you don’t absolutely need to be out. I get the feeling ppl still aren’t taking this seriously, and it is sad. I just cannot understand.
If you have an exposure to a Covid-19 positive person, getting a negative result up to 4 days after exposure DOES NOT mean you cannot become positive. You will need to have a repeat swab after the initial swab, while still in quarantine. We must be mindful of incubation periods!
In a hospital filled with female residents, you are bound to have some pregnant. Yes, some over 7 months pregnant, and they work at 100%. You don’t know what’s under those hazmat suits and you don’t know the great sacrifices being made to treat patients daily.

No-movement really needs to be NO MOVEMENT if we really want it to work. Otherwise, we have to go back to the drawing board, and come with something that will.
Ppl really like Nigel Clarke. I’m not surprised though. Have you met his sister? She taught me and I stood in awe. Pure genius. They have to be aliens.
P.S. if I refer to someone as an alien, it’s a good thing; it is pure flattery.
