Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 E-mail: ActionForAngels April 9, 2003 To ALL Parents of Vaccine-Injured Children: If you've been faxing, phoning, and doing your part when it comes to Frist and Congress, Thank You Sincerely, and please continue. However, if you are out there and able, but haven't been joining us at rallies, on the phone/fax, or at meetings in Washington, then please help. We understand if finances, distance, and other living circumstances prevent this, but we cannot imagine that there are not more parents who might be able. This is why it was troubling to see such a small turnout at the mark up this morning. I probably noticed more lobbyists there than parents, and this is disappointing. Ian, not yet 5-years old, traveled almost 4 hours to Washington, DC this morning. I wanted Ian to be able to defend ALL of our children's rights. He is already filed under VICA and is probably one of the more " fortunate " children who will be within the statute of limitations. But this is not just a question of Ian's rights.... This is a battle to preserve the rights of all of our children...yours and mine. Ian's lifetime is worth immeasurably more than the amount that the legislators may agree upon; so it is inconceivable that any legislator would think that your 7-year old's or 12-year old's life could possibly be worth NOTHING. This is just one of the issues under debate. There are thousands of you out there...parents of vaccine-injured children. Please help us in this sustained battle that the government is waging upon our children's rights. The media is slamming us. The government seems to be trying to wear us down. We will not give up. The government should not just hear from all of the same parents; this will diminish credibility. Imagine how it will be for these children when they are older. They need opportunities for improvement NOW. Imagine how many families out there will not be able to provide their vaccine-injured children with a safe and healthy haven when they are older. Please help these children and families. If you are willing to help at the next rally or meeting in Washington, DC, or are able to respond to urgent political action alerts by quickly phoning/faxing legislators, please e-mail: ActionForAngels Teri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
