Can I share an experience I had yesterday?...with a local. reinforcement-speak out.
Well,I got brave enough to get my hair cut-first time since my brain surgery.Went to a local hair salon.My stylist(barber) had a friendly chat with me.I told her about my surgery.She was sweet.She said she was grateful her 20 year-old would be added to her insurance after Jan.,as he was a type-one diabetic.I confirmed this,and thanked the president for pushing for this.She told me about her babysitter,who developed seizures recently.I gave her the number and address for my neurologist,as well as medicaid(I told her to be sure and have the lady apply before the end of the year). She shared that her daughter also had type-one diabetes,and how grateful she was that her husband's company still offered insurance to employees(since beauticians have none).
I gave her some of my secular healing beads for her kids.
She gave me my haircut on the house.
We hugged.
She will vote Dem in the next election...and she WILL vote.

It can still happen.Even in Red Hell.
Speak out,folks.
