Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Just for the record I wasn't offended, just pointing out that for some of us those suggestions amount to only part of what we do daily just to make ends meet. My pocket change often ends up in my gas tank by the end of the month, but again, I think that even I, over time can manage to find 30.00 To K , I don't think you offended anyone with your messages. I took them as heartfelt and as offering some ideas for those who are having difficulty financially. I also think you opened up a topic that we don't talk about often due to pride, embarassment, privacy, etc. But as a support group we need to talk about these things and share ideas. You are correct: Many people belong to this listserve and think they are getting all the info they need. Magic offers so much more and unless we talk about it, people may not know that. Just off the top of my head I can think of: the newsletter, the medical articles, the protocols from Dr. H. regarding treatment for sick kids, the convention, and even the RSS/SGA book that and Katy are working on for the doctors. I know there is more, but I think you know what I mean. Anyway, don't think that you offended, please. At least I don't think you did. As I said, I think you brought up a topic that needs to be discussed. Jodi Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 --Dear Jodi, Bless you! Thank you! I'm trying to be very sensitive but proactive at the same time. I'm not sure if these two traits can be partners at times, but in the case of our children, I would walk barefoot in Antartica for Connor if it meant helping him. And, I know, after talking to people here and meeting people at convention, they would do the same for their kids. Talk to you soon, Mom to Graham 7 (ADD); Cameron 4 (ADD); Connor IUGR, RSS, periactin, Zantac, asymmetry, ciphosis. - In RSS-Support , " Jodi Zwain " <magicrss@h...> wrote: > , > > I don't think you offended anyone with your messages.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 , I do to know what a latte is. I was being facetious. Darn the limitations of print. I share your opinion of it. I absolutely live on coffee hence the e-mail handle. A friend gave me an espresso maker a while back, I can't drink the regular stuff anymore, I'm hooked. I guess that could be my sacrifice for a Magic membership, switch to coffee, it's a little cheaper. To K > > > , > > I don't think you offended anyone with your messages.
