[Diabetes-talk] A question

Sun Dec 7 23:36:16 UTC 2008

Cheryl:

I am in communication with Aarn Williams who knows people at Eli Lilly who have some influence. I am in the process of getting addresses etc. of chief executive officers of this company and Novo Nordisk to send letters of protest. I have the letter drafted. However, I wear multiple hats within NFB and I admit that some other commitments have taken my attention until now. But work on the pen issue along with some others is at the top of my priority list.

Thanks for keeping me honest.

Mike Freeman
