Hi Sunny, yes not everyone feels comfortable using their real names here. I think they are trying to be careful. The internet is, as you know, attended by some very bad people along with the 99% good and well meaning people. And some people are trying to be as safe as they can.
I try to remember everyone by their handle or Mayo name. I suppose if someone wanted to, they could make a list of each person's handle they want to remember and write a few notes with each one to remind them of who they are. I try to do it in my brain which is hardly a perfect way to remember. If you click on their handle (I am talking about the @<name> thingy in blue), you will be taken to their profile page and you can read some of their recent posts as a refresher. I don't know how to go back very far in their post history though. Best, Hank

Hello Hank, yes I too am a very private person and can't even believe I'm on a Blog let alone sharing personal stuff LOL! I think what I'm talking about is that some people do sign their name after a post and sometimes they don't. The Gabapentin has all but destroyed my memory so it is really tough to I know who I am speaking to match what they shared with their stories. That's the real issue, reading the stories and then not knowing in later posts who had shared what story, it's just a matter of not knowing how to address them rather greet them in the beginning of a response or a post with a new thought for that person.
It is because the web is so full of evil and evil people that I do not typically post any personal information about myself and none on social media. I will just have to try harder. Thank you for your input and take good care of yourself and Linda, Sunny flower
