@nannette, I too was a silent observer and told Katherine @katemn that there were probably alot more people just reading through then there were posting. So her hard work was reaching lots more people then she could even imagine. Im really glad when someone comes out and tells their story even if its a short one. You are right @katemn is our Angel and I hope she is getting better everyday. Im ready for her to take the wheel when she is ready .Stay strong everyone!

@chinasmom and @nannette, thank you for having the courage to come out from behind the silent observer curtain. It's true that many people choose to read only. The ratio is typically 100:1 readers to posters. Just think of all the great help and support that each of you in this group is providing to so many. A community is built of many people, and Katherine is proud that you are stepping up to greet new members, share experiences when someone has a question and to keep the warmth and intelligence of our Connect community thriving. You can't have a community if everyone is silent. So I thank you for what you do too.

@collenyoung, that's amazing that the ratio is 100 readers to one poster. And when I'm reading I always think how lucky we all are to have Katherine (and others) as the head cheerleader. I sure hope she gets back on her feet soon. The angel watching over all of us needs good thoughts and prayers. This is a wonderful support system. And thank you for all you do. Mayo is lucky to have you. Nan
