@mir123 and @covidstinks2023…Oh my gosh, your words of praise for this fabulous forum brought tears to my eyes! As one of the mentors for Mayo Connect, I can speak for all of us that these positive accolades mean the world to us and our fearless leader @colleenyoung. It’s the goal of Connect to bring people together in a safe and trusting atmosphere of community.
It’s members like you, who come to Connect with their own set of health issues in hope of finding answers or to at least not feel so alone…then in turn, I see you coming to the rescue of a new member with open arms, that offer of hope…the all important life-line.
So thank you to the members for continuing to keep Connect such a beneficial and welcoming place for everyone. You know the saying, “It takes a village”. As members in this community, we are the village and we’re all in this together. I’d say it’s time for a group hug. ☺️

@mir123 @covidstinks2023 @captboat @teababs09 Thank you for all the kind comments. Like @becsbuddy and @loribmt I think long and hard about what I’m writing or about to writing because I don’t know if I’m providing the answers that the member is looking for. You might have noticed that sometimes we ask a lot of questions so we can figure out how best to support the member.
What first brought me here and continues to keep me here at Mayo Clinic Connect is that wacky or nasty points are rarely seen here. If they ever do such posts get removed. We all in this together and there is enormous kindness and compassion among all of our members.
