I wouldn’t mind if family members sometimes asked how I’m doing. When I don’t complain they think I have been cured? Or maybe afraid to ask.

At music camp for kids. It’s all acoustic but I wear ear plugs. It’s fine but I’m bit sad to hear loud T on top of the kids’ beautiful music

Great news, @Hazel! I sent a little too and I hope you’ll get the expenses covered. Have a good time and thanks for going to the conference on our behalf — and even giving a talk!

Had a quiet T day being busy with practical matters. Felt great! Now I’m taking a well deserved break and T is very loud!!! (I’ll be okay).

Thinking about you all and wishing you a good night or day, where ever you are. I am having hard days here and hope for better day tomorrow.

Gone through months of stress and was hoping for a relief but now life is a living nightmare. T on top, of course, and I feel so much worry.

Still have increased loudness due to the cold I got. It’s driving me bonkers.
