My husband wrote the most wonderful post about Eddie and I wanted to share it on this site:
Grief is the price paid for love, and Eddie was loved deeply by a great many people. Our grief is acute and intensified by the wonderful individual Eddie was.

I’ve been trying to get to Hebron for the past 24 hours, but almost every checkpoint and gate across the West Bank has been shut down by the occupation
Palestinians in the West Bank are locked inside their own villages (and some are unable to get home)
A war is coming to the West Bank
Yesterday Palestinian resistance fighters conducted a surgical strike against Israeli occupation soldiers, fully in accordance with international law.
In response, Israeli government immediately announced that they will do war crimes and started doing war crimes.
All the Palestinian villages in the West Bank are under siege, the city of Hebron is under siege. IDF is demolishing house after house, raiding family after family. They said they want to turn Hebron into Rafah.
More than 250 families were kicked out into the streets with nothing. People slept on the street last night.
The Israeli election is in 3 days, and the Netanyahu-Smotrich government is going to use this to start a war in the West Bank.
The only way to stop this is pressure from all directions. We know it works. International pressure worked for the besieged house in Qusra, which still belongs to the Palestinians because of the all-around attention. It can work for Hebron too.
But it will require EVERYONE reading this doing everything they can to stop this. Call your representative, hold a demonstration, organise direct action against the occupation’s assets abroad. Keep attention on the West Bank.
ACT NOW.

Chinese scientists have found that hypoxia and inflammation induced by COVID-19 infection can trigger angiogenesis and accelerate lung tumor growth.

This is not surprising. We’ll likely see the same thing with chickenpox over the next few decades.
Given today’s infectious disease landscape with measles, covid, etc, doctors really need to be encouraging parents to minimize taking infants to crowded indoor places.

Within the next 48 hours, if flour is not allowed into Gaza, all bakeries in the city will stop producing bread.
We are facing an enormous catastrophe. Famine is knocking on our doors once again, and this time, it could be worse than anything we have experienced before.
Please, do not remain silent! Talk about Gaza, make our voices heard around the world, and do everything you can before thousands of people lose access to something as basic as a loaf of bread.

This was not about harvesting olives.
It was about harvesting headlines.
Brad Lander’s latest stunt is nothing more than a calculated political provocation.
Lander traveled to a foreign country, deliberately entered a restricted security area, and participated in an unauthorized activity without the required coordination.
What makes this stunt even more outrageous is that his own team contacted Israeli representatives in the United States ahead of his visit and was explicitly informed that proper coordination with the relevant authorities was required.
He chose to ignore those instructions.
At a time of heightened security tensions, Israeli security forces have a responsibility to protect lives, prevent dangerous incidents, and maintain public order.
Had anyone been injured as a result of his reckless political theater, Lander would undoubtedly have been among the first to demand that Israeli authorities intervene and provide protection.
Brad Lander came looking for a confrontation. Now he is pretending to be its victim.

Israel claims a farmer needs Israel's permission to harvest his own olives and not having permission justified the mass detention of a large group of people harvesting olives.

So far, 10 bakeries have shut down due to Israeli ban on flour entry into the Gaza Strip..

Yes, Brad Lander should have coordinated with Israeli forces. Just look at how well they've treated their partners who follow the rules in the past!

I’ve been detained by the IDF, along with a group of rabbis & volunteers. We were simply harvesting olives in a grove near Nehalim in the West Bank.
The occupation is a crime under international law. Harvesting olives isn’t a crime under any law I know.
Eddie was able to get his Covid and Flu shots while under anesthesia for a different reason at Seattle Children’s in 2023, they had just started allowing this 🙂
Getting vaccinated while you are under anesthesia is a real thing! stopantivaxpropaganda.org/p/…

If you haven't been tracking COVlD closely the past 8 weeks, it's important to know that the CDC has made sizable retroactive upward corrections over and over.
What once looked like a small wave or wavelet has nearly doubled in height.
ALT 13 waves
PMC COVlD Update, Oct 17, 2026 (U.S.)
Early Release
COVlD levels have rebounded into a secondary peak, as the CDC continues to retroactively correct levels upward.
Outbreaks span 44 states (see Alt). Levels are falling in TX, still high out west, & up in the Northeast.

ALT The US has at least 44 states and territories with COVlD outbreaks. The CDC made large, upward retroactive corrections to prior estimates, and we are now in an apparent secondary peak. States with observed outbreaks include Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Guam, Hawai’i, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, U.S. Virgin Islands, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Additional states with poor monitoring likely have outbreaks based on high levels in bordering counties in adjacent states.

There is a large number of newborns in Gaza being born without limbs and with many congenital deformities. These are the results of the phosphorus bombs and other bombs whose nature we do not know, which Israel used against the Palestinians in Gaza. We have seen every type of bomb raining down on us. This is another face of the genocide.

Two of the largest playground equipment makers want to merge. We oppose anti-competitive mergers that raise prices on Washingtonians and violate the law – and in this case could also lower the quality of the playground equipment. So, we’re joining a coalition of states and the federal government to block the merger. Read more here: atg.wa.gov/news/news-release…

NYT Today: Any SARS-CoV-2 infection can trigger Long COVlD. Getting reinfected in perpetuity is like playing "Russian Roulette."
ALT Long Covid as Russian Roulette Doctors tend to be more concerned about the chance that someone will develop long Covid from repeated infections than they are that a person will get very sick in the acute phase of the illness. Covid can cause long-term damage to nearly every part of the body and repeated cases can compound those harms. A number of studies have shown that each time someone contracts Covid introduces an opportunity to develop long-term symptoms. Researchers often compare it to Russian roulette: Any infection could be the one that leads to long Covid. “Every time there’s a wave, there’s another wave that’s going to follow with patients developing new onset long Covid,” said Akiko Iwasaki, an immunologist at Yale University.

the fact that this video was filmed in Jabalia (northern Gaza) makes it a billion times worse. this is the area that held a heavy percentage of the genocide casualties and carries tens of thousands of unrecovered bodies. this is a crime scene being erased in front of our eyes.
Some IDF renovation work going on in Rafah, Gaza.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This video was not filmed in Rafah. It was filmed in Jabalia.
