What could a health care provider do differently to better support people during winter? Let's think about preparation, communications or types of care. I think that the person itself, because you have to have a very good relationship with your healthcare providers in order for you to really let them know what it is that you need, because they're not able to read your mind. You can just go to the doctor with a complaint and the doctor can look into it and that's the end. But you being a patient, you have to advocate for yourself. If the health, like push the healthcare provider along, like let them know what you really, really need. You just have to advocate. Then the healthcare provider in turn, you know, I need you to, you know, give me all the help you can give me, all the help you can give me. Yeah, that makes sense to me. So listen, thank you so much for doing that.
