Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Not sure about your server but I use outlook express and I can go to Message Rules and then block senders list under the Tools heading. Then you can " Unblock " . Good luck...I have her e-mail; she and I are both Komen Champions for the Cure® which means we are members of the newest Komen group that is a public policy group. This is the stuff I asked everyone to go to and petition their congressperson. For those of you who have not done it, the link is www.policy.komen.org and you can send something to your congressperson directly from that site without having to look up an e-mail or snail mail addy for them. Please, please do it is you have not already. I would love knowing if you did it...We had over 400 people to sign on there in one day!!!!!!!!!!!! > I got an email this morning from your friend Sue.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 Cheryl, this is something that my group that I work with for Komen is trying to do...we want Congress to appropriate money to help women who can not afford it to have screening for breast cancer and cervical cancer. If you go to the site, you can sign up and the petition will automatically be sent to your congresspeople. www.policy.komen.org by the way, my picture is on the site too. doris > > I got an email this morning from your friend Sue.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 Thank you, thank you, thank you and if the women who receive the service from this had your name, they would probably thank you also. I know one lady who has benefited from this program...she had bc so this probably saved her life. Thanks again. doris > I did it last week =) > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 20, 2002 Report Share Posted November 20, 2002 Hi Doris, Thankyou for your reply. Yes, isn't it amazing the way we trust Doctors with our lives even though our gut instics are telling us that the Doc may be wrong. I have learned after two episodes of major depression, both following a short stint on the contraceptive pill, that Doctors cannot be trusted! I do my own research now, and take what they tell me with a grain of salt. Perhaps it is a good thing that the pill did not work for me, for if it did, and my mum's cancer turns out to be estogen receptive, well who knows? I may have inherited the gene for estogen receptive BC from her and well, who knows...
