NYT journalist, Susan Dominus, believes our parents' influence is less important than that of our siblings. The Family Dynamic, her new book, maps out why.
Heartiest CONGRATULATIONS on the Webby Award! 🍾And another hearty THANK YOU for this publication! You have improved so many lives. Sending you a huge hug 🤗
Have that ear issue resolved! Very high risk, yes. And if you haven’t, join GoldRX for help lowering prescription costs. (My recent topical chemo for skin cancer was $30, would have been $79 without it.)
Congrats! You were up against some flashy stuff and when I voted, the site was seldom higher than second, so woohoo!! I often hesitate before some of my Substack subscriptions renew...Do I get $50 worth of joy/use out of it? But this one is a no brainer. You literally changed my life, thank you. (I work in a public library and I put Ladyparts on the Staff Picks shelf every time I check it back in)
Thank you so much! As for beating the Onion, they won the People's Choice in my category, but I won the Webby Academy vote. Which is the one I cared about more anyway. Women's health will never win the popular vote against a juggernaut like The Onion. Thank you so much.
Congratulations!! A Webby is so so well deserved. Your site has improved Susan’s health, my sister’s health, our friends’ health, and has kept me informed (I’m one of those MDs who was in med school as the world suffered through the time of misreading data about estrogen.)
And a paid subscription has been very useful to me—I can spread the info above and the gospel of weightlifting by sending the articles to my friends & colleagues.
I'm a paid subscriber and I brought in my DIL as a paid one as well. I'm also a writer here on Substack and the work I do costs me time (and money in subs to research and news puns) and it is worth being paid for. So I hear you. My next week's sub actually will have recs in it and I'll definitely rec LadyParts. You are saving lives!!
I just finished your book, Ladyparts, and loved, LOVED it! Now I'm reading Between Here and April. I feel I can almost hear your voice (and a little of mine) in your words. I am a physician (a gynecologist, and a menopause specialist, so your medical words and experiences really mean something to me....cuff dehiscence...whew!--I've only seen one, and that was quite enough, you poor thing) I'm also originally from NY, (Brooklyn) have three adult children (boy-girl-boy) and my daughter got married 6 months ago. I've also spent time in Samos, a Greek island I have never heard of anyone else including in their travel knowledge. I heard Susan Dominus speak at the Menopause Society meeting a few years ago and she was amazing. Congatulations to you on the Webby. Well deserved.
Congratulations on your Webby!! I have been following you and your career since you spoke to us at HCLI! I am a proud subscriber who feels it is well-worth the money!! Of course you should be paid for work!!! Hope others will join me in supporting you!! Congratulations on your daughter’s nuptials!!!
Thank you!!!!

I was stuck, as I was in LA for a funeral when I realized the fluid was still leaking from my ear. So I had to deal with the CVS on hand. Sigh.

You are so kind, Steve, thank you!
This book sounds great! I look forward to reading it. And to talking to you, because this piece made me realize we have a few more commonalities. ❤️
Aha! I’d love to know more!
