SUPPORT LETTER UPDATE FROM DAWN         5/21/2012

Still getting support letters as of yesterday, May 20, 2012.

I have kept Jeanette very informed and emailed her again today (May 21st) to let her know that we got about 90 letters and may have a few more stragglers.  I mailed them all this morning certified to the board and they will arrive on May 22^nd.  Jeannette knows , and I think I wrote in my original email that a lot of the support came from my fellow Master of Social Work students at the University of Washington and a few from local churches; a third or less came from people she directly knows.

We have a lot of people simply praying now until June 8th,

See you then and I want to thank all of you for your efforts in getting these letters written.

Take care

Dawn

LAST PLEA FROM DAWN - 5/14/2012

Jeannette needs our letters of support- NOW! 

Hello again,

I still have not gotten any letters (except from two people, thank you) for Jeannette. I understand the weekend was beautiful, Mother's Day and life is busy, but please take a minute to write a letter for Jeannette so she can be out here with us all and enjoy beautiful weekends like this last one was. I need to mail the letters this week, as they need to get to the board two weeks before her hearing so,

I need your letter by May 18th, that is this Thursday.

I have gotten great feedback from my collegues at school and people have taken her stiry to their places of emplyment, I have gathered well over 50 letters from complete strangers, and the number continues to grow, I tell you this because it is a bit disheartening that people who dont know her are so willing to write letters while the people who do know her have yet to write a letter. So please, this will be my last email asking for letters, take a few minutes to write a letter today or tomorrow.

Thank you

Dawn  @ (206) 743-5266  or  dawn330@gmail.com

PS If you are having trouble on what to say or how to write the letter I can send you examples or give you pointers on how to write a good letter, and remember it only needs to be a few paragraphs.

JEANNETTE'S NEW POST  May 7, 2012

Hello everyone!
....Seems like in March I thought the time would go so slow, but it's already May. Am sure the time has gone by because I've been so busy with legal issues. The Risk Assessment took about 3 weeks and is now complete. Then working with my counselor on a Viable Release Address, plus updating other assessments. I have good guidance from administration here, which is a bit unusual in this sort of legal endeavor and I am grateful.
....Am enjoying the blog and being able to get a message to everyone and to hear from people.
....Many of you always want to know how I'm doing. I wish that I could describe it all, the feelings, the appreciation and the love that I feel. Everyday when I see or hear stories in here of misery, I am reminded how lucky I am. It's because of each one of you who is reading is.
....Every so often I want to comment on people and if it seems like I don't get to you, know that your turn is coming. Okay! So today I want to do a shout out to Elizabeth. As many of you know she is unable to drive anymore and because of this she feels quilty that she can't see me. We write and I call, so we're good. You are there for me just as you have been there for me throughout all of these 28 years. Elizabeth - I LOVE YOU!
....Alice - hope your time away was good. How was the Mall Outlet? Inside joke here!!
....Susan - as usual you are a lifeline and my calming angel. Your peacefulness makes me see the bigger picture and it's always a brighter one!
....I love you all - talk to you soon. Jeannette

END.

P.S. (Editor: We send Jeannette a copy of this blog weekly, so feel free to write her on the blog to say "hi")

Oops! Fell Behind on the Follow Up Calls :(

BUT JEANNETTE STILL NEEDS OUR SUPPORT LETTERS 

Hello,
I am sorry that I have not done the follow-up call that I promised. I wanted to make sure that you are able to access Jeannette's Blog (some wireless laptops are having trouble accessing the Blog) and just check in and say "hi" but I have a challenging back injury which makes sitting excruciatingly painful.  I will try to call all of you whom I have phone numbers for this weekend.

So far we have 5 people who can commit to 10 dollars a month to send to Jeannette's attorney to help with Jeannette's mounting legal fees. I don't think that I included Sheryl Gordon-McCloud's address in my letter so here goes:
Sheryl Gordon McCloud
710 Cherry Street
Seattle, WA 98104-1923.

A Welcome Message from Jeannette

April 23, 2012

Greetings!

The inspiration of this blog stems from my concern that as a group of individuals we are sort of “gypsy” like.  Some of you know each other, some of you have never met and some of you have just recently entered my life.

I am blessed to be surrounded by what I refer to as an “eclectic group of individuals” whom come from many walks of life and have entered my life at varying times.
