Hi Janette, you sound like a feisty brave woman doing a lot for your community but also sounds like Covid derailed your activities a bit. Appreciate you have a lot of health issues but is there a way you could get back to some of your volunteer work on mental health, taking it slowly until your own mental health is good?
