    More Than Breasts and Babies

    Completely agree that women's health should be more inclusive.  Through my consulting work, I advocate strongly in bringing more attention to women's cardiology, in addition to urogynecology, which is a socially difficult field even in highly developed areas of the world.  (People generally don't want to talk about fecal or urinary incontinence.)

    Tobacco = Evil

    While I don't agree with the recent fatwa fury around yoga and androgenous hairstyles, I do think that Indonesia's contemplation to ban smoking on religious grounds has the potential to be a huge sea change in the outlook of smoking in the Muslim community.

    About Alanna

    Hello Alanna,

    We met yesterday on email.  Here is my story: I was born on a train in India.  Whenever I need purpose or direction in life I think about this.  It gives me goosebumps every time.  Life is fragile and largely unexpected and yet there is so much good.  I love healthcare because it deals with peoples' most vulnerable and exciting stages of life.  I love reading about new technology or novel simple ways to heal.  It is invigorating for me to be involved in cross-faith work in malaria control through Malaria No More. 

    Thanks for your blogging.  I love your insight.
