Dave & Marcy Leblanc
ask for your help on this issue.
 

Hello All,

Some of you may not know that Tessa, our 9 year old daughter,  has been diagnosed with a rare complex 3 mitochondrial disorder.
While we are still in the infancy of figuring out the long term effects and her overall health status, her current Doctor
has only seen 1 other case in his 30 years of practicing in Genetics at Children's Hospital.

 Please take the time to read the forwarded email below.  This funding that is slated to be cut will be used to fund
this organization that supports children like Tess.  

 Please take the time to contact your Reps and ask them to help.  Also please forward this to anyone you think can help.

 Dave and Marcy LeBlanc
 

ATTENTION MASSACHUSETTS RESIDENTS..NECPAD NEEDS YOUR HELP
NO LATER THAN THIS MONDAY, JULY 28TH!!!!!!

 
Good Morning,
 
    The New England Connection for PKU and Allied Disorders, Inc. (NECPAD) needs your help to override Governor Deval Patrick's veto of an earmark Rep. Christine Canavan secured thanks to YOUR help designating $75,000 for NECPAD in the FY'09 conference committee budget.  If we can get a vote to override that veto, the money will still be available.  This is our last chance for funding in the FY 09 budget, so PLEASE ACT NOW!
 
    Please contact your state representative and senator via phone or email, and request an override of the Governor's veto of language earmarking $75,000 for NECPAD in line item 4513-1111, and please ask your family and friends to do the same!  For those unsure of who your MA State Representative or Senator is, please visit www.wheredoivotema.com and enter your address information.  In the results, there will be a box titled "District Representatives" and in that box, there are entries for "Rep in General Court" and "Senate in General Court".  These are the persons you should contact with this request. 
 
    The overrides must take place by the end of July, 2008.  The sooner everyone can make these calls and/or send an e-mail, the better!  PLEASE forward this e-mail along to your family and friends, especially those across Massachusetts, and ask that they please support our efforts by the end of this week (preferably today, tomorrow and Friday), but certainly no later than the close of business on Monday, July 28, 2008.  
 
    If you need any other information especially about PKU and the many activities that NECPAD organizes and supports on behalf of the PKU and Allied Disorders community, please feel free to visit NECPAD's website at www.necpad.org.  If there are any questions about this legislation, or if you are interested in becoming more active in NECPAD, please e-mail Denise Queally, PKU mom and NECPAD Board Member, at denisequeally@comcast.net.  Thank you in advance for all your help!
 
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE TAKE JUST 15 MINUTES OUT OF YOUR DAY TO HELP US SECURE THIS FUNDING FOR THE PKU COMMUNITY!!!
