Dear: Family and Friends
The holiday season is fast approaching. It is one of my favorite times of the year and I look forward to sharing the (Christmas/Kwanza/Hanukkah/etc.) with you and the rest of my family and friends. Everybody is busily working on their wish list for holiday gifts and I've been thinking about mine, too.
You know that I had a stroke . I don't talk about it a lot for a number of reasons. I don't want people feeling sorry for me, besides, talking about illness makes some people uncomfortable and sometimes, it just makes me sad. I want to be around for a long time and celebrate many more holidays with the people I love. That is more likely to happen if we only could find a cure for strokes. Fortunately, god has given me the gift to raise money toward this effort. I am very excited about this effort it means so much to me personally as well as help for my rehabilitation
So, instead of buying a present for Strangers set aside a little for me this year, I hope you will consider making a contribution to my Fund for the stroke. With a donation to my website: http://www.geocities.com/stroke_vic/ihadastroke.html?1159927345906
Your Donation would mean the world to me.
No gift is too small and could help to save a life.
With much love,
Leo Arterberry
