Mrs. yonder wants to extend a heartfelt THANKYOU

for the tremendous show of support and words of encouragement from everyone who responded to this post yesterday:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215865785

She was buoyed-up by your responses and asked me to urge everyone with a family member, friend or acquaintance who also works in healthcare, to take a moment and give them an atta-boy, a hug...anything to show appreciation for the difficult work they do in these tough times.

So from her, from me and to this great DU family, thank you. You're the best.

That's a great term for our collective exhaustion which pretty much says it all. I'll be borrowing that.

I shudder to think where we'd all be without the brave and compassionate first responders and healthcare professionals.

If there was ever a group of people who leave the world a better place than they found it, each and every day, it is they.

Thank her again for her generosity and compassion, and thank you for sharing her with the rest of the world, yonder!

So....thanks. I like your inclusion of everyone - "right down to housekeeping" too. The unsung heroes of our lives do not get the recognition they deserve.
