Hi, JLO,
Since your page says you're from the midwest and you say you are physically disabled, we will gladly accept positive thoughts and prayers. We (the DC Chapter) have been FReeping outside the gates of Walter Reed for the past 44 weeks. Code Pink started an anti-war "vigil" there at the end of March 2005, with distasteful, vile signs, and the DC Chapter showed up to counter. Not only have we been there ever since, but we managed to drive them away from the gates when they let their permit lapse and one of our clever people grabbed it. So now we have all four corners and they had to take their nasty selves down the block where they are approximately 92% less visible. We FReep from 7:00 to 9:45 Eastern time every Friday night, to welcome and cheer the Walter Reed patients, their families, and staffers coming and going from the gates. We welcome all FReepers to join us, either in person or by thought and prayer.
