Thanks folks.

I am glad for this support from other TBIs.

This is the latest email from her. She is offering
her help from on location in Pinellas County. Can we
do something for her too? I hope so.

Thank you so very much for your note.

I would love to keep folks up to date on Terri's situation. it would be an honor.

I live in the hospice neighborhood and am the only writer with disabilities covering the case locally.

I have a booklet out about mine and Terri's story called "When I Woke Up..." that might be of use to you. A non-profit institute puts it out. Let me know if you are interested. No on emakes any money off it. It appears in translation in Germany next month.

I also post Terri's status on my blogs. I would be happy to give you those addresses.

I want to keep the focus on Terri while protecting local right to speak out. That's my sole perspective in this.

I am working on a book aboiut the TBI community perspective on Terri. It is a collection of everything I've written. When I find a publisher I will let you know.

There is also a CBS/A&E documentary in the works by very pro-Terri folks in Miami who retained content control. I'm in that demonstrating blink and communication board conversation. I'll let you know when that is scheduled to run.

Yours,
Rus
