Dr. Jones has asked YOU to attend his hearing on Sept. 28 at 10 am. It will be shorter than the past hearings, about 3 or 4 hours. Will you be there? http://www.lymesite.com/drjones.htm
Directions to the Legislative Office Building, 300 Capitol Avenue, Hartford, CT; location of Dr. Jones' September 7th & 28th hearings can be found at: www.cga.ct.gov/olm/directions2.asp Skip down to the 300 Capitol Avenue info.
What do you owe Dr. Jones & ALL LLMDs? What do you, your family, friends and relatives owe Dr. Charles Ray Jones?
We owe him everything. He saved our daughter's life, literally. He GREATLY improved our son's life. What would have happened to our kids, and yours, if Dr. Jones wasn't the selfless GIANT of a man he is? What do you owe him?
A day trip to CT to show him you care, financial support?
I owe him way more than a few days spent attending his hearings to let him know he is supported, WAY more.
Maybe Dr. Jones hasn't treated anyone in your family or anyone you know. Do you still owe him your physical presence at his hearings and your financial support? He is fighting the fight for ALL LLMDs. EVERY LLMD deserves our support in time of need.
It astounds me that highest attendance for any of his hearings has been about 100 people! I know he has saved THOUSANDS of kid's lives. At his last hearing...just over FIFTY people!
Yes, there are some good reasons to not show up. There are also excuses for not showing up. Are your reasons for not attending solid or excuses? Is it impossible to attend or uncomfortable?
It is fantastic to send a check. Thank you for your financial support. Without your financial support he can't fight the fight. I know he greatly appreciates your financial contributions and your letters of support. Now let's start attending his hearings to give him a visual of the support we have for him. It breaks my heart to see such small turn out at his hearings and I think it must be hurtful to him as well. Though he would never say so...
It may not be easy to show up at the hearings....but, IMHO, we OWE him. We owe it to Dr. Jones and ALL LLMDs to support his fight financially and by showing up at his hearings.
You might be surprised to find it is easier than you anticipated to attend his hearings. Give it a try. Show up. Give him the support he deserves.
Dr. Jones next hearing is scheduled for September 28th at 10 am. "I welcome and extend a hearty welcome to each and all of you to come and see what is going on in the legislative hearings."

If you check out the thread on the summary of the last hearing, you'll see that the hearing panel will NOT permit Dr.Jones patients to testify about how much he helped them.
So it's more important than ever that we all show up tomorrow at his hearing.
By filling the room, we can quietly get the message across to the panel that Dr. Jones has helped so many patients.
