For those of us in the United States, today is Memorial Day where we remember those people who lost their lives defending the freedoms we enjoy. In my family, we also remember the lives of our loved ones we’ve lost. Most important for me is looking back on their memory and learning from them. Two of our amazing EXPO.health keynote speakers shared cartoons that really captured how I’m feeling this Memorial Day. I hope you’ll enjoy them too.

It’s been a hard couple years, but there’s a lot right too.

This one is particularly poignant today as we think of all the healthcare workers that have lost their lives in the battle against COVID. While it’s not a war in a traditional sense, there are certainly a lot of parallels to the sacrifice these healthcare workers made for others.
I hope you enjoy your holiday and we’ll be back tomorrow with more great health IT content.
