Our computer crash a while back wiped out our Paypal account. My husband still hasn't been able to recover it from the old hard drive, so my check is in the mail.. I wish it could be more.

Without SOG my life would be more painful---since last summer I have been victimized by a dangerous neighbor, my life was jeopardized by helping him naively.
Being a member of prestigious SOG I was benefited in many ways as you can imagine. Otherwise my situation could be much more worse. I even called Cynthia at her nap time, (found this out later) and got her several advices on one issue, --Dr Cynthia, a credit for you.

Because my suffering in China, I have difficulties but I have failed to do as hard as Cynthia to overcome and succeed. Cynthia and all of those great Americans, you are always my inspiration and example!

SB,

You should not judge yourself so harshly. Everyone takes hardships in different ways. And, you are a very special person - remembering my birthday, sending me litlte gifts from time to time. Never forget you have a beautiful spirit!

Thank you, Cynthia!
My parents always want me to show their appreciation as well. Those gifts to you are only sketches, and a Chinese calligraph I wrote, showing high level of my Chinese literature's cultivation. Your birthday is at the same month and day as Senator Thurmond's, who helped me once. Both of you share some strong endurance. He can keep debating for over 40 hours, you worked with unimaginable minimum rest. I remember him of doing 50 minutes strenuous exercise daily, I remember you of dealing hundreds of people routinely.

Also, please take care your health

Cynthia I just wanted to bump this up so new members and others who have had a chance to donate can be reminded to do so.

It is well worth whatever you can spare!
