[nfbmi-talk] A Little Birdi Told Me...

[Christine Boone]

Evelyn,
Thank you so much for your well wishes and for your support!  I remember your name and your case from my earliest days in the Federation.  My husband Doug and I sat at your table during the banquet at our National convention...was that last year?   I think so, and it was wonderful to share the meal with you.  
  
Thanks for sharing some history and some wisdom with us all!  
Warm Regards,
Christine

Now for those of you who are from the Eastern side of Michigan, when I say Guys, I mean men and women, boys and girls.  It's a western thing.  So I am sending out my heart-felt thanks to each and every one of you for sticking by me during this long, hard time.  I know that some of you might have been thinking that there must be something wrong with me, for after all, wasn't this the second time I had been fired?  It feels absolutely amazing to be vindicated once again.  We don't have a million dollar judgment this time, but we have the very thing I have wanted most since the beginning of this adventure:  And that is my return to work.  I am more than ready to get back to the important business of making Michigan's training center into a place where blind and visually impaired people really are prepared to go back to work, both inside and outside the home!
