Sure. And do you set yourselves any personal goals for your health during the winter? And if you do, what are they? Would you like to share them with us? And how do you go about reaching them? I don't think I have any personal goals during the winter. Sure, sure. Okay and thank you very much. And if you could give someone advice about staying healthy in the winter, what would you tell them based on your own experience? I mean other than the fact of just telling them to make sure that their vaccinations are up to date and try to go to the doctor. I don't have any advice to really give them. Sure. Okay. Our last question, Pamela, is what could healthcare providers do differently to better support people like yourselves, your good selves, during the winter? I mean, think about preparation, communication or types of care? I would say like the communication, just to make sure that they're touching base with their patients and let it be outside of the normal of an appointment, just call to see how they're doing. So that's like my main concern is that, to have a doctor that communicates outside of your appointments to see how you are doing. I think I will feel more, I don't wanna say closer, but I will be more inclined to validate the person other than just without a medical number, just to check to see how the person is feeling, so. Sure. Okay, well, once again. you
