While many of us are safely inside during today’s blizzard, there are extraordinary healthcare workers showing up—again and again—through the snow, the wind, and the long and challenging hours. I was stuck at a hospital for 3 days during a blizzard, while working as a nurse many years ago. To the nurses, respiratory therapists, physicians, techs, and support staff caring for patients with bronchiectasis and NTM… thank you. Your dedication ensures treatments continue, airways stay clear, and patients feel supported—even on the toughest days. If you’re a patient or caregiver, take a moment in a few days to send a message of gratitude to your healthcare provider who is working- It matters more than you know.Stay safe. Stay warm. 💙
