Great idea David - here's apost I posted on the main board on the subject:
Amen Pam - let us all hope against hope that the President is able to push through reform on health care - personally I think health care is not something that anyone should be able to make a profit off of and that private insurance should be completely done away with. I know its a radical concept to some but I do not think that people's lives should be fodder for others to make money off of. It is so very WRONG in my opinion. I know we will not get there this time but the least we can do is to take such power out of the insurance companies hands, not let them discriminate due to pre-existing conditions or deny tx based on whatever ridiculous excuse they can come up with. A friend of mine was denied tx from her insurance company 4 years ago for bc because she failed to disclose that she had been treated for acne as a teenager with acutane. This is a true story. It is UNACCEPTABLE!

For those who might be late comers to this board, Dory was a poster who we will remember as one who gave of herself so others survivors might smile. She always kept this board moving with her inspirational poems, jokes and riddles. Most will give Dory credit for energizing this board. She was an inspiration to everyone on this board. In that spirit, let us
continue to post in Dory’s memory so she might smile down on us and give us the same inspiration. Therefore, we have named the board, Dory's Board, in her memory. 11/11/01 (Dory was the first to call attention to the significance of 9/11, re: WTC tragedy, i.e. 911 for emergency). Let me be the first to note all the ones in the above date, indicating she was No. 1 on our board.
