Feedback on Guidebook - Questions for some of you

May 25, 2004

Thank you all for your feedback. We do have financial aid for

families who are NOT members and who could not afford to pay the $5

for the guidebook (or whatever we charge).

But the sad part is that we have this financial aid NOW for families

who want to be members of MAGIC and can't afford the $30, and we

still don't get that many requests.

So, here is my BIG and loaded question.

More than 150+/- of you out here on this listserve are NOT members

of the MAGIC Foundation. Would you be willing to share with me

privately, or here on this listserve, the reasons why? Maybe it can

help us alter the way we are providing our services, and also decide

how we should handle the distribution of the medical information.
