I never do this. I never leave exactly the same message to each one of my friends but I'm going to do it today. In the last month I have heard of two friends who have experienced a TIA (commonly known as a mini-stroke). One is a man in his 40s and the other a woman in her 50s. In honor of these dear people and all the loved ones my family has lost to heart disease I am sending this same message to each of my friends.
Jcofla has a profile here on AARP that you need to see. Please, take just a few minutes to read John's journal "Breakfast in Bed" and to watch three short videos about the American Heart Association's "Go Red For Women Day". Then take another minute to tell John thank you! You can find his profile here:

i believe that when we look to create the good we commit ourselves unselfishness. In the society in which we are so fortunate to live in reaching out to another is the medice that will allow us to heal, to grow and to become whole. I have a time each Saturday morning in which a few of us provide a breakfast meal for the homeless and poverty stricken in my community. This is so fulfilling for us and yet I know it is just the tip of the iceberg. I am looking for ways to develop a non profit organizatkion that will allow this service to be expanded that ai will be able to reach more people. If anyone has ideas please share them
