Claudia, you ask at the end of your post: Any suggestions?
I reviewed today's agenda, and in some ways we began to deal with todays accessibility isues yesterday
We must try to "meet people where they are". Philo of Alexandria once said that we must be " be kind, for everyone [we] meet is fighting a raging battle" (as quoted by Kathleen Norris in The Virgin of Bennington, 2001). Some people are embarrassed, others afraid of government. Patience and perseverence are tools need in staying connected.
I watched the list grow and grow yesterday, and here it is 9.17 (ET)and the list is half a page already!
Claudia, stay connceted to the people and yourself. Get support and ask questions. "Afflict the comfortable" and "comfort the afflicted" and speak up. One voice can be heard...and 975( # signed on for the forum) can be heard louder.
Andrea
