[Nfbf-l] Putting your money where your mouth is

[Kirk]

Oh Eric, I forgot to mention that while I have been busy doing the work for 
the blind in  Florida, I had a dual transplant, multiple hospital stays, 9 
major abdominal surgeries in 2 years time with many follow up and hospital 
stays for issues. I have been diagnosed with a paralyzed bladder, nerve 
damage to my intestinal and stomach walls(gastroparesis). My food is unable 
to digest properly which causes multiple problems for me at times, no 
circulation in my lower extremities, heart abnormalities , neuropathy 
throughout my body and  too many other issues too numerous to even mention, 
I take 50, yes 50 medications a day, not to mention the extra ones for pain 
for the days I hurt too badly to go out and keep advocating, so I can  keep 
on keeping on, all the while doing the afore mentioned work that I do, I 
suppose I am a slacker to someone like yourself and the work you do for the 
beautiful state of California!
I will try from here on out to do as you suggest and "Put my money where my 
mouth is"! KH----- Original Message  -----

Let's see, putting your money, where your mouth is: Hmmm!

If you enjoy helping out other blind people out, if you enjoy State and
National Conventions that will help you grow as a leader, dues are
important.  It shows the Federation that you're "putting your money, where
your mouth is."  Kirk, what you, essentially, said to RJ was just that.
Another way to put it is, "money talks."  The teachings of Marc Maurer,
Jacobus TenBroek, and Kenneth Jernigan teach blind people that "if you
believe in a cause, champion it."  Give money to it, and legislate, on
behalf of it.  Right, Kirk?  Right, Gloria?  Right, RJ?
