Help bring 'The Relentless School Nurse' home (Ep 2 rewind)
<p>Robin Cogan, the former president of the National Association of School Nurses and the guest on episode 2 of my podcast back in June 2024 (Can School Nurses Prevent the Next School Shooting?) has been diagnosed with a sudden onset terminal illness while traveling out of state. Her family needs help paying for medical flight back to New Jersey. While I never met Robin in person, from my virtual interactions she was an extremely kind and caring woman who was committed to children’s wellness.</p><p>Robin also setup our joint interview on the New England Journal of Medicine podcast (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2308309">What We Don’t Know about School Shooter Drills — ITT Episode 18</a>).</p><p>Here is the info from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/bring-robin-home-r69n4?attribution_id=sl:d87150ae-729b-4c3a-9c07-2b55b0e8095a&lang=en_US&ts=1780505378&utm_campaign=pd_ss_icons&utm_content=amp17_tb-amp20_t1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link">Robin’s GoFundMe</a>:</p><p>Robin is one of those people who makes every room brighter — a devoted friend, colleague, and beloved member of the Nursing community. She has always been there for others, offering support and kindness in times of need. Now, Robin is facing a terminal diagnosis that came on suddenly and without warning, and she is currently hospitalized in Virginia, far from the home and family she loves in Cherry Hill, NJ.</p><p>Her wish — and the wish of her family — is to bring her home, to be surrounded by the people who love her most in the place where she belongs. To make that possible, Robin needs to be transported by medical airplane. This is an expense her family simply cannot bear alone during this impossibly difficult time. The emotional and financial strain has been overwhelming, but the hope of bringing Robin home keeps everyone going.</p><p>We are asking for your help to give Robin this gift: the chance to come home. No amount is too small. If you cannot give financially, please share this page — it makes a real difference. Your support means the world to Robin and her family, and together, we can help her return to the comfort and love of her community.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/bring-robin-home-r69n4?attribution_id=sl:d87150ae-729b-4c3a-9c07-2b55b0e8095a&lang=en_US&ts=1780505378&utm_campaign=pd_ss_icons&utm_content=amp17_tb-amp20_t1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link">Please consider donating to her GoFundMe</a>.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-riedman-90088b132/">David Riedman</a>, PhD is the creator of the <a target="_blank" href="http://k12ssdb.org/">K-12 School Shooting Database</a>, Chief Data Officer at a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.merrillherzog.com/">global risk management firm</a>, and a tenure-track professor.
