^^^^^^GREETINGS FROM^^^^^^^^^^ Ivan Suzman 47/10 [log in to unmask] Portland, Maine land of lighthouses deg. F *********************************************************** Dear Camilla, Charles, Barb, Dennis, "SJS", J.R> and Ken, and friends, Thank you for your detailed and supportive letters about the appointment I flew to Florida to have. that was abandoned by the National Parkinson Foundation's doctor. I for one will not forgive the NPF for refusing to cover my $3400 loss, when Dr. Sanchez-Ramos did not show up. And the ONLY explanation I ever got was a message on my answering machine two days after my return to Maine, from Sanchex-Ramos, saying, " Mr.Suzman, iit was a scheduling error. I only have one-fifth of a secretary." My name was right on the printed schedule for the 2:00 PM appointment slot. The secretaries showed it to my CNA, to me, and to the NPF's Julian Pearson, who had ushered us to the clinic waiting room at exactly 1:58 PM. The legal road is closed because I cannot file a small claim in Maine, only in Florida, and I'd have to spend precious time and money just to do that. The whole thing SUCKS. IVAN 47/10
