Just when all hope was lost.... [View All]

I'm recovering from a surgery my insurance didn't pay for (their deductible was so high it was not worth it) and all of the news is horrible...and I'm mad at Obama's poll numbers dropping right when we need him to be supported the most....I'm missing my family who are far away....

and a fellow DUer, whom I've NEVER met, finds out I'm missing Trader Joes treats and sends me the nicest care package I've ever gotten.

I'm blown away.

I know this probably doesn't belong here, but fuck it. Sometimes it's important to remember how big we are. How much good we can do. How generous our members are. I was thinking of giving up today. But now I'm going to take my chocolate covered pretzels and my yummy chicken noodle soup and I"m getting back in the game.

SO, to my DU angels (there are two of them!), unapatriciated and lame54, thank you!!!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We can do this thing, people. Because we have people like my two DU angles on our side. This is who we are! We're doing this for everyone. For those who are in so much worse shape than I, and have no voice. We're doing it for families who are losing their homes so they can pay for their chemotherapy. We're doing it because it's the right thing to do.

All I want now (as if I haven't been given enough today) is for everyone who gives a shit to show what we're made of. Sign up to be a part of the solution.
