Guest guest Posted October 10, 2002 Report Share Posted October 10, 2002 I think we should form a little mini-group and discuss and share the letters we are sending so as to reinforce our point and present a collective unified position. I almost can't think of doing one more thing, but maybe we need to gather information so we don't duplicate efforts. , can you post what you are planning to send and I will contribute what I can (t-shirt? other stuff?) Can someone compile the names of people interested in forming this little group? Since it is so late in the year, I wonder if we should try to cover a few other shows like " The Other Half " (not my favorite by any means, but a possible avenue for us), " The View " , " The Carolyn Rhea (sp?) Show " (Rosie's successor), any others? I'd like to work on one basic letter (from each of us) and present compelling packets to some of these people in the public eye. This is not to replace individual letters, but I think we need a cohesive package as well. Let me know your thoughts. I have to say, alot of this last-minute situation is my fault. I just underestimated. I would be surprised if we even got a reply from any of these people before the end of the week. But at least they can each get a ribbon and just maybe wear it. I apologize and promise that all year I will work on the 2003 CF Awareness campaign to avoid this exhausting push at the last minute. , I really dumped alot on you and I feel bad. You have a foundation which needs you and I feel you had to step in and take on way more than you should have. I hope you are okay and not inwardly resenting me. Regarding Boomer Esiason, does he still do Monday Night Football? I am thinking not. Okay, more ribbons to make Take care Everyone!

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Lenora, Is the National CFF getting involved with this effort. I have just found this sight and I am not too up on what is going on. I know in our area of Ohio we have a hard time getting people even involved in the Great strides walk. We have a committee of about 10 people and that is it. It seems like since CF is such a small community but thank God since our Children are growing into adults our community is growing. I see you have the View listed, I know they have that Stars Heart Segment where she does a touching series, maybe she could do something for the cause. They do timely things on there. Boomer Esiason is still on one of the football channels(ABC?) but not sure which one, his foundation was in the World trade center building. I have an 18 year old son with cf so anything I can do to help please let me know. Cindy Mom in Ohio Sent Letters to Oprah requesting atleast a mention this year if she cant do a whole show on the subject but to remember us and our kids Re: Re: Oprah (sorry it's a long post) > > > I sent a letter to her!
