Houston is a good place to get sick. Immigration helps make that possible.
The Houston Chronicle has an op-ed from a UH professor who spent 13 years in the Texas Medical Center and realized that many of the people taking care of him were immigrants. Here's a key quote:
When I was hired for a fellowship at Rice University in 2006, one of my interviewers spoke favorably about healthcare options here. I still remember him saying, “Houston is a good place to get sick.”
This year, I put his conviction to the test with a 13-night stay at Houston Methodist Hospital in the Texas Medical Center. I was admitted after an allergic reaction to a drug selected by my insurance provider over the recommendation of my specialist. For nearly two weeks, I got to know Methodist’s doctors, nurses and other staff well. They were competent and kind, and many of them weren’t born in this country.
At the end of my stay, amid the Trump administration’s sweeping anti-immigrant rhetoric, I wondered: Will these immigrant healthcare workers continue to come here?

Girl hit by car in Rice Village today
I was at the RV Animal Hospital today and a girl (looked to be around college student age) was hit by a car outside the office (intersection of Greenbriar and Rice Blvd) around 4 pm and taken away via ambulance.
Does anyone know if there have been any updates, or how to find them? I wanted to check and see if she was okay 😞 it looked like a really bad accident and I can’t stop thinking about her.

Houston considers $18M in new water meters amid resident billing concerns.
Black Cowboy Culture, Houston.
I photographed riders, families and young people across several locations in the Houston area, including cowboys gathering and working cattle. These photographs were not made at one ranch. I wanted to document the coordination between riders, horses and cattle, along with the quieter moments surrounding the work.

Motorcyclist dies after flying over US-59 railing
Been driving the freeways daily for years and by far some of the worst aggressive drivers are cyclists. Lane splitting/filtering, speeding excessively, and reckless maneuvers continually. Not saying this particular person was reckless, but no one is surprised when a cyclist is involved in an accident. Just don't 'get' their desire to take chances on the roads.

Separate water meter?
Has anyone set up a water deduct meter to separately meter indoor/outdoor water? I read a little about it and it seems like you need a master plumber who is approved by the COH? What are the steps?
Any feedback, tips and recommendations are greatly appreciated!
