Hi You All

RE: In fun I send this



Below is a Rehab related spoof on the 12 days of Christmas; not 
sure I've
seen this in the past.  I got it off a list that I am on.  And 
send it because
to a former client of, and former worker from within a rehab 
agency, I found
it to be lyrically clever, and an interesting spoof on Rehab.  
Yeah, from a
very generous counselor for sure; not someone who is working 
under an ever
shrinking budget!

because I
can't see.
