I was intrigued by the title- "just" is a four-letter word to me. My background is nursing, so I hate when nurses say "I'm just a nurse". Just minimizes whatever is in front of it. (End rant!:) I enjoyed listening to you and Nora and was especially interested in hearing about how advocacy is measured. GREAT interview!
Thank you so much for your continued support, Gretchen. And I hear you on just, but I think it conveys why so many eczema patients face the stigma they do. Others look at it as 'just a rash'. And I know you know all too well about our choice of words and the stigma they can establish.
I totally agree with the title for exactly what you mention- spot on! My comment was, in general, that people should take “just” out of their vocabulary!
