Hi,
I'd heard from someone connected to the organizers that John was still sifting thru the many testimonies as of a few days ago -- sounded like VERY GOOD news regarding the written response.
Don't know for sure about people showing up yet. I believe it's going to be a wet and rainy day here in Boston on Weds.
PLEASE COME IN SPITE OF THE RAIN. WE NEED TURNOUT.
Today I wrote the Boston Globe and reporter Bella English who had done the excellent Lyme article in the Boston Globe last June. Wrote a persuasive note asking them to cover this historic event. So please come despite the weather!!

Hi Samantha,
I owe you a letter and have been thinking of you and your daughter often. Wanted to respond to so much.
Have been spending my evenings on Lymenet and not writing private emails -
I hope I see you there!!! You can finally meet my mom, who is coming. Mothers of daughters with Lyme have so much to talk about - if I figure out what color I'm wearing I'll write and let you know.
I don't own anything Lyme green. (Is that a good thing??)

Your life matters! Be in Boston tomorrow morning!
If you are having trouble linking up with the chartered bus, be creative. Just get there.
Please, please, please!

Glad you're going to make it Henson. I skipped work today and a meeting tonight to save energy for getting up tomorrow. I'm sure I'm not the only one saving up what energy I have.
I'm planning to bring all my empty pill bottles to show the results of my Dr. refusing to give me antibiotics until I waited a month and had a test!
I'll take my hat off in the State House but I'll be carrying it, straw hat w/black ribbon. Stop over & say hi.
