For the Medical Monday segment underwritten by Jennifer Benton amid "The Winter of Our Discontent" Edition of The WLIW-FM Heart of The East End, host Gianna Volpe applied the following list shared by Stony Brook Medicine to late winter with hopes it helps save lives through a tough time of year for many:

● If you, someone close to you, or someone you know is experiencing a suicidal crisis or in emotional distress call or text 988 and have a confidential conversation with a trained counselor 24 hours a day at the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

● The holidays can bring up difficult memories or thoughts for many individuals. Stay connected with others by engaging in daily check-ins, even if they may seem okay.

● Be kind to yourself. Remember to participate in self-care activities to help lessen the stress felt during the holidays.

● Be mindful of people’s boundaries. Don’t overextend yourself or others emotionally, physically or financially.

● Remember that you don’t know what people are dealing with this time of year. Acts of kindness to both those you know and strangers you meet can really make a difference to them and to you!

Medical director of the adolescent LGBTQ+ care program at Stony Brook Medicine, Dr. Allison Eliscu, joins The Heart of The East End, Gianna Volpe, for the Medical Monday segment underwritten by Jennifer Benton to discuss findings from the comprehensive survey conducted between June and September of 2021 regarding healthcare for LGBTQ+ patients, which had 1,150 completed and validated responses. From stonybrookmedicine.edu “Results were striking in several areas. For example, more than 60 percent of respondents reported symptoms of chronic depression; almost half reported poor mental health and/or anxiety, and more than a third had thoughts of self-harm. Despite this, only slightly more than a third are receiving mental health treatment. In general, access to healthcare was revealed as a frequent problem. Almost a quarter of respondents indicated that travel time or distance made it more difficult to see a provider. Thirty-seven percent of respondents reported being treated disrespectfully or in a non-affirming way by a healthcare provider or their office staff. More than 16 percent frequently face racial or ethnic discrimination in healthcare. Respondents indicated a strong interest in an LGBTQ+ health center and participating in telehealth visits with a sensitive provider.” For more about Edie Windsor Healthcare Center specializing in LGBTQ* services

It was built by H.H. Rogers, Jr. whose father was the wealthiest man in the U.S in 1910. The estate was created on over 2,000 acres on the Great Peconic Bay as a hunting lodge. It was a place for men to hunt and get away from their families who summered in Southampton, hence the name 'Port of Missing Men.' The Rogers family continues to occupy the estate today.

Alexa Seuss, https://www.commongroundjewelry.com/collections (Common Ground Adornments) North Fork jewelry-maker Alexa Seuss joins Gianna for the Medical Monday segment ahead of her 100+ mile trek from New York City to Long Island’s East End — Central Park to Mitchell Park — on Tuesday, May 10th. The walk is being held to help raise funds for New York non-profit RIP Medical Debt, which pays off portfolios of medical debt, by asking folks to sponsor mile-sections of her walk. As Seuss states, “Will this walk overhaul our healthcare system? No. Will it automatically start a Medicare for all program? Nope. But will it possibly help a rail-thin jaundiced 20-year-old sobbing in a hospital bed like me all those years ago? Yes. If this helps one person pay off their medical debt, that’s enough for me.” For more information visit https://www.miles4medicaldebt.com/ (miles4medicaldebt.com).

From the NFCT website – NFCT.com – “Hailed as a captivating and encompassing piece of contemporary theater, The Laramie Project shocks, challenges and moves audiences profoundly as it reveals the lowest depths of hatred and the greatest heights of compassion that lie within the people of this typical American community now dealing with the horrific trauma of an unconscionable hate crime in their own backyard. On October 6, 1998, in Laramie, Wyoming, a 21-year-old gay college student named Matt Shepard was kidnapped, savagely beaten, tied to a fence and left to die. 18 hours later, barely breathing but alive, he was miraculously found by a kid riding his bicycle. On October 12, 1998, after five days in a coma, at a hospital in Colorado, his family by his side, Matt Shepard died. A month later, Moisés Kaufman and members of Tectonic Theater Project in New York traveled to Laramie to interview a community in shock, struggling to make sense of what happened. They would return to Laramie six times in the course of a year, seeking perspective in the aftermath of this tragedy. Over 200 of those verbatim interviews were then edited and crafted to become an astonishing piece of documentary theater, revealing the complicated impasse of a broken community torn between the wreckages of hate and glimmers of hope.”
