Ginger-
You are one of the most fabulous people I have ever 'met,' and I think
we are all the better for your voice here! You're a kind and wonderful
person, getting a note from you always feels like a hug. I really
appreciate you. I know I didn't manage a post but I wanted you to know
I was so totally supporting you and praying for you during that speech,
what a brave woman you are! I'm really glad it went so well. Thanks for
everything!
