Trust Your Instincts When Something Feels Off on the Road

I remember once following a car that seemed to be driving oddly, but I brushed it off, thinking maybe I was just overthinking. Minutes later, that car hit a huge pothole, and I realized I should have trusted my gut. Now, I always pay close attention to the vehicles ahead—if something feels off, I slow down or change lanes. It’s better to be cautious than to regret it later. Have you ever ignored a gut feeling while driving? Share your story below! #DrivingSafety #TrustYourInstincts #RoadAwareness #Cars

Why I Chose Not to Teach My Baby Sign Language

When my little one was born, I felt pressure from all sides to introduce baby sign language. But after a lot of thought, I decided not to go down that path. For me, it was important to focus on spoken words and natural gestures, letting communication unfold in its own time. I wanted to watch my child’s unique way of expressing themselves, even if it meant a few more tears or moments of frustration. Sometimes, I wonder if I made the right choice, but I trust that every family’s journey is different. Have you ever questioned a popular parenting trend?

When Typical Isn’t Typical: Our Journey at 26 Months

I always thought my son was just like any other 26-month-old—full of energy, curiosity, and those adorable toddler quirks. But as the months went by, I started noticing little things that set him apart from his peers. Maybe it was the way he lined up his toys for hours or how he struggled to make eye contact. At first, I brushed it off, thinking every child develops at their own pace. But deep down, I knew I needed to trust my instincts and seek answers. Parenting is a journey filled with surprises, and sometimes, what seems typical isn’t always so. If you’ve ever questioned whether your child’s behavior is just a phase or something more, you’re not alone.

I found my own cancer when doctors couldn't

When relentless rib pain had me yelping with every movement, I refused to accept the "negative" CT report. As a physical rehab professional, I requested my actual images and found what doctors missed: a black hole in my 8th rib, hidden in just 156 of 1300 images. Trust your body when something feels wrong. I had to fight the system and threaten regulatory action to get the bone scan that confirmed what I already knew—malignancy. After surgery to remove the rib and part of my chest wall, I'm currently NED (No Evidence of Disease). #HealthJourney #PatientAdvocate #TrustYourInstincts

Misdiagnosed: A Tragic Hospital Mix-Up

A family’s worst nightmare: 5-year-old Lila was sent home from the hospital with a tonsillitis diagnosis after headaches, neck pain, and vomiting. Her mom, a former nurse, even asked about meningitis—but doctors dismissed it. The next morning, Lila was gone. Tests later showed it was meningitis all along. Her family is now raising awareness so no one else has to go through this heartbreak. Always trust your gut and push for answers if something feels off. #MeningitisAwareness #TrustYourInstincts #Parenting #Health
