This week, yet ANOTHER inspiring Milwaukee woman ...
On average, three children a week come into Children’s Wisconsin Hospital with gunshot wounds.
THREE CHILDREN A WEEK.
If this doesn’t make you angry, we don’t know what will. Listen this week as we talk with Pediatric Emergency Physician and Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Dr. Megan Schultz, about her dreams for our city and our world, and what she’s doing about this desperate statistic every day in the emergency room.
Listen as we talk about …
- How a single gunshot in Baltimore changed the trajectory of Megan’s career and pulled her out of the classroom and into the ER
- The alarming gun violence statisics in Milwaukee and just how common it is for kids to have, play with, and use guns
- A helpful script for approaching the topic of guns before a playdate (parents listen up!)
- How anger fuels her in the ER and on the page (READ her Op-Eds linked below!)
- Small kindnesses … the antidote to suffering and anxiety? Megan thinks so (and so do we!)
