Filming this episode of The Pitt is an experience I'll never forget. The story we tell is incredibly poignant and deeply necessary given the times we're living in. @rdubarry was absolutely powerful in her portrayal of Pranita - she brought such emotional weight to everything my character navigated in this episode that I found myself imagining what it would feel like to find my own mother or father in that same situation. As the son of immigrants, my heart goes out to everyone who finds themselves living in fear in this country, even when they're doing everything "the right way."
Thank you @therealnoahwyle , @johnwellsproductions , Uta Briesewitz, and Valerie Chu for allowing me to help tell the story.
Photos at the end hopefully make you not hate me. Slide 4 is @shabanaazeez_ 's reaction to me telling her about vegan cinnamon rolls at @cinnaholicla 😂

🎂 I can't stop replaying moments from this past weekend, and these photos are just a few. I've been sitting here trying to come up with a caption but the words haven't been doing it justice. I've never felt more loved for just being the person I am. Thank you to the friends that planned it, the friends that showed up, the friends that cooked, the friends that simped, the friends that hit their cars, the friends that melted into the couch with me. The vegan cinnabuns, cupcakes, the games, the laughs, the ________, the _________, the 67s, the dogs, the snowballs, the corner, the Tupperware lid. This caption doesn't make any sense but it doesn't have to. I'm just thankful. Getting older isn't so bad. 🥹
