Dear Mary Ann, Maryhelen, Stephan and other listmembers, I talked with Archbishop Desmond Tutu's office twice more. today, at Emory University. They are VERY receptive, and distinctly compassionate. I am trying to do everything they need, humbly and completely. I believe that YOUR e-mail messages to him could be quite helpful. I feel that placing these messages on our List would be better than e-mailing his office directly. This tactic would help me to know what Listmembers are thinking about his potential involvement with us. I also mailed him a long, personal letter, which he had requested. I asked him to do whatever he felt he could do. I emphasized April, because it is Parkinson's Awareness Month. I wrote about how truly difficult it is for most of us PWP's to be heard. I hope that he can help us visibly. I am actually VERY uneasy tonight, because I do not want to push. I am hoping that I am letting him lead the way. I will follow what he tells me to do. (I know, I know, Ivan the follower??) So, I am keeping my fingers crossed that I am doing this job sensitively. .
