Nicolle Wallace's "Lives Well Lived" segments

[manhattan123]

Anyone ever see those "Lives Well Lived" segments Nicolle Wallace does at the end of her MSNBC show every day? A few minutes recalling the lives of people lost to coronavirus.

They usually have me tearing up, and today they had her just losing it; a little 9-year-old girl in Florida, and a Baltimore doctor who cared for virus patients succumbing himself.

Sometimes, with the scope of the crisis, and the ongoing absurdities of the clown in the White house, we lose track that these are people behind the numbers, leaving behind devastated families, and we should never do that.

1. I cry every time she does that

I’m kind of glad I missed today. I really lose it when children die.

I’ve cried for months because of the pandemic deaths. It didn’t have to be like this.

2. Those are heartbreaking.

They make me cry every time - the little girl and the doctor today especially.

3. Wish I could rec 1 million times.

The “little guy” stories that ARE this crisis.

Lovely post.

4. I watch them most days... they are heart-wrenching. Especially the children.

I applaud her show for giving a face to some of those who have departed the world too soon. Devastating, but wholly necessary.

5. I don't know how she keeps it together. I'm such a crybaby, I would be sobbing every show.

I was in tears.

10. They are compelling and necessary. 150,000 is a number. These are the people.

[Ilsa]

11. The segments choke her up, too.

These people are not anything "special" (by standards of people like the trumps), except that they were fabulous human beings that led thoughtful lives that had a huge impact on the people around them. They were not famous or powerful; they were just well-loved by everyone that knew them.

13. The segments make me cry, but I watch them. We need to know there are ppl behind the numbers.

May Kimme and the Doctor Rest in Peace.

[nevergiveup]

14. I force myself to watch these segments.

We absolutely much keep reminding ourselves of the beautiful Americans that have been lost to this terrible disease because of the total incompetence and cruelty of this president. Today's segment was particularly tough and a powerful moment in cable TV new. Nicolle Wallace is the best.

17. They always cause me to choke up. Nicolle has to collect herself almost every night.

We hear the numbers, over 150,000 to date. She puts a face and a life to those numbers. I so appreciate that she does this.

18. I cry every single time -- it's so sad, so senseless

19. These are wonderful, sad, and vital journalism

Nicolle does a great job with her "Lives Well Lived" tributes. My sister and I watch her every day and have concluded she writes these herself. Genuine, heartfelt tributes to who is important.

20. Strong post n/t

21. Today's show was brutal. The little girl and the doctor both particularly tough.

I can't imagine one of my kids lying down for a while only to find they had passed. Life shattering. And a man who had so much to offer, so talented, and one of "the helpers."

So sad.

22. We need to help each other.

These are real people, dying.

23. Wolf Blitzer does them on CNN too.

I appreciate them doing this.

24. I believe she has an 8 year old. She is a class act.
