Episode 13: MWB: Holidaying Safely with The Littles during a Pandemic with Dr. Fáti

from Mommying While Black · host LT

As of December 13, we have reached a grim milestone in the United States with over 804,000 deaths as a result of COVID-19, the global pandemic affecting the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the loud and the meek, the strong and the weak.  COVID has struck across continents, race, gender, religion, economic status, political affiliations and faiths.   On this episode of Mommying While Black™, we sit down with Dr. Fátimat Okafor (aka Dr. Fáti) to dissect how to safely spend the holidays with our families and children.  You may recognize her face for going viral as the "Houston rapping bride" for spitting hot fire lyrics with her husband on their wedding day, but she is more than a gifted lyricist.  This doctor has beauty, brains, and bars.  Arguably, it's her brain that the most amazing asset of all to her patients.  Dr. Fáti is a pediatrician in Houston, TX--a state with second-highest number of reported deaths in the country second only to California.   Lean in as we chat with Dr. Fáti who has been examining "The Littles" on the frontlines daily.  We thank you for your service, Dr. Fáti! xoxo     That said, be well.  Travel Safe.  Stay vigilant. Also, you can follow Dr. Fáti (IG @drfatimd) where she gifts us with pro tips and gems about caring for our Littles the best way possible while also being gracious with ourselves. #BlackPediatriciansMatter #BlackGirlMDs #HoustonStrong Mommying While Black IG @mommyingwhileblk www.mommyingwhileblack.com
