@Chris Trout, @Colleen Young, @gingerw, and everyone out there in Mayo Clinic Connect Land. Miss you, love you, and need you.

Feel like I have to start over at square one. I cannot say that I am depressed. But if I saw my symptoms in someone else, I fear that would be the case. I did not even want to get up out of bed this morning. Our area was hit by tornadoes last night. No damage in our small town.

I question a lot. But one thing I absolutely do not question is why me. Why Not me?

Hopefully we can all come out of this wiser, humbler, and more caring. More resilient.

Courageous.

XOX,
Mamacita Jane

@mamacita you are most definitely courageous. Thank you for letting us know you are safe from tornadoes that ripped through the south. Praying for family and friends that live in the area. Mostly thank you for your words that encourage your mentor, moderator and member cyber friends. Blessings on your day.

@mamacita We are right here for you. You are strong, you are courageous. And, yes, if you feel depressed, you have certainly earned that right to be in that spot for now, with all that is going on. Are you able to carve out some time for yourself, even 5 minutes a couple of times a day?

So very glad to hear no one in your town was damaged by the tornadoes, but how scary it must have been!

We will all pull together and be wiser, more caring, more humble. And leaning on each other/being there for each other.
Many blessings, and a gentle [cyber] hugs coming your way,
Ginger

@mamacita Your postings always give me such strength. Please use some of that strength to care for yourself so you can continue to care for your family. Becky
