[nagdu] Resolution of Denial to Doctor's Office

[Marion Gwizdala]

Marsha,
    I did talk to him about NAGDU and our hotline. I didn't want to 
overwhelm him too much, so I didn't tell him about us forming a Pennsylvania 
division. I have his telephone number, though, and can share it with you 
off-list.

Fraternally yours,
Marion
