@barbfowler, dealing with cancer during COVID is particularly isolating. I invite you to the discussions in the Colorectal Cancer group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/colorectal-cancer/

@thisismarilynb, I agree that this blog is relevant to many of us, not exclusively for people living with mild cognitive impairment. I know you originally joined Connect to connect with others in the Heart Rhythm Condidions group, but you may also wish to join the discussions in these groups too:
- Loss & Grief https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/loss-grief/
- Aging Well https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/aging-well/

@fromthehill, I think these groups would interest you too.

@judithjoy, you mention that you "Mainly I read, watch TV or spend time on the internet." @retirement75, you said your book club disbanded and that you're creative

Might I suggest that spending time connecting with people on Mayo Clinic Connect can be a form of socializing? There are a few discussions on Connect that are not about health problems that you could take part in. For example we have discussions about jokes and sharing a laugh, pictures showing what's outside your window, arts and crafts, pets and service animals, nature, a book club where people share what they are reading, music and more. Check out this group:
- Just Want to Talk https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/other/

What's your interest? I'll help you find the right discussion and people.
