Two surgeons, one operation: the model behind Catherine Hannan's practice
Catherine Hannan does something in the operating room that most plastic surgeons never do. She shares it. For major procedures at Washington Women Plastic Surgery , the Washington, D.C. practice she co-founded, Hannan scrubs in beside a second board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Lauren Patrick, and the two operate on the same patient at once. One plans a contour while the other checks symmetry. One closes while the other reads proportion. In a specialty where the surgeon is almost always a solo act, that arrangement is close to unheard of.

NO SUCH THING AS NEUTRAL
There is no neutrality in physical existence. You can avoid church, politics, spirituality and uncomfortable conversations, keep your head down, go to Walmart, celebrate the holidays, and tell yourself you are simply living your life.

There's a funny thing that happens when you write openly about disability, ableism, and the emotional labor we're constantly asked to perform: people who are new to disability sometimes react like you've personally set their house on fire.

The Price of a Scratch
Her fingernail caught a faint raised ridge along the edge of the sofa back. Not leather grain—damage. Compressed fibers pushed up into a rough burr, about four centimeters long, its curve matching the sharp bottom edge of a table leg.
