Kathi49:
You are in a very unique position. You have a close relative who actually can speak to a person WHO CAN REACH MILLIONS.
We will probably never get another shot at this again. And when I said print out the threads, I know you can't print out all the threads.
Maybe you can just get an article on the horror of neuropathy, and then just copy and paste some of the people's stories from these forums.
I mean, hey, it's a start. That is if your daughter would be willing. It's hard, approaching a celebrity, even if that celebrity is a family member.
I once had a family member who was a celebrity. Remember the TV series TAXI with Tony Danza and Danny Devito?? Remember the bar they always hung out at. There was a bartender named Tommy. He would always be washing down the bar and giving them their beers and listening to all their problems. THAT WAS MY MOTHER'S FIRST COUSIN, TOMMY.
He went on to be a tv producer.
I met him a few times. I was always thrilled to have a celebrity in the family.
So if your daughter is willing to be a front person for us, hey, YOU NEVER KNOW!!!
We might just get that segment SOMEWHERE on a tv show.
And we'd all give you a great big hug.
