I reposted this post because of all the confusion on your stories to Bev
D. Please read this and I hope this will stop the confusion. Thanks!
Hello my Family, (sorry, this is long, please, please read to the end)")
This is something we have all been waiting for. Let's be heard is what
we want, and guess what - WE WILL BE HEARD! Bev Doucette will stand up
and speak on behalf of each and every person suferring with ARD when she
speaks to the officials in Washington D.C.!! Yes, that's RIGHT! She is
meeting them on Wednesday, April 25th and needs you to do your part to
be heard. Isn't this just the greatest??!! We will finally be heard and
I'm so excited I'm doing imaginary cartwheels and dancing around the
room. This is BETTER than OPRAH and those other stars who are ignoring
us. This is all you have to do, and please make it your priority today.
") Don't post your story on the IAS board, it's easier to do it this
way....send your story directly to Bev to her email - bnb@cybrzn.com or
to her address: Beverly Doucette 2314 Carney Ave Marinette, WI 54143 -
all letters need to be completed and sent to Bev by or before April
24th. You can cut and paste from the quilt, whatever you want to do to
get your story to her is fine. Write it and DATE it..pour out your
feelings, your REAL life with living with ARD..all of it! Send with your
photo if you wish. Do it in word and attach it to her email, (She will
not be able to respond to those stories as she is preparing for this
trip...remember my ARD family, this is not for her, this is for US!)
Please get her your close up and personal ARD story. This is so very,
very important if she is to make an impact on the impact of ARD! Bev
will speak for all of us who suffer ARD, but words alone will not make
it as real as your own words will make it! There will be power in
numbers, we have this chance,lets make it the best we can! Bev has a
firm appointment on the hill in Washington D.C. Wednesday, April 25th,
2PM..and whomever wants to be part of that meeting is certainly invited
to be there in spirit through their own story's! Bev is going to speak,
Bev will be there, she will forever use any opportunity to fight for all
of us..but now is the time for all of us to be heard...she is offerring
to carry to Washingon D.C. the ARD story everyone who wish's to send it
to her...she can't do more then that! Bev will fight for all no matter
what though! She also intends to be recognized by the Surgeon General as
the past Wisconsin Govenor is his secretary. I send prayers to Bev, to
give her enegery and strenght and have strong angels around her as she
is in front of these people giving our stories. I urge you to send your
story to her as soon as you can. Love to you all, ~Chrissie Damon xo's
