Wow... it's really hard to believe that it's been a year. That I've worked on it for so long. That I've kept it going, even during the dry times. That I've kept it going at all.
A few weeks ago, there was a piece of information about a hospital in Indiana. A year ago, some hospital workers, in their infinite "wisdom", decided to call a woman there a "he-she" and a "it". When hospital administrators found out about this, this hospital changed its tune, big time. Today, this hospital is a model for others in Indiana, the nation, and the world for compassion, care, and proactive vision. Lives are being saved.
You are making this happen.
A few years ago, New York, even with a Democratic majority at the time, failed to approve a marriage equality bill. Now, even with a Republican majority, the Senate approved the bill they had previously failed to pass.
You are making this happen.
I am happy. Deliriously, wonderfully happy. There are a few things that make me even happier, though. For the most part,the "comment" section is silent. Even a few sentences would turn this into more of a conversation.
Also, when you e-write the President, Senator, Congressperson, Governor, state Senate or Representative, let me know! Even a line or two helps. The same goes for anywhere else in the world.
For all of you who have e-listened in the past year, thank you so, so, much. The way things are going, there will be even more in store!
