---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2000 11:53:11 -0400 >From: Mark Clement <MClement@bruderhof.com> Subject: Update on Mariam Mariam is doing very well. She is currently at the home of Dr. Ali Aboosi and is receiving excellent care there. Yesterday she ate a good breakfast, including lots of chocolate milk!, and some egg. Then she went shopping. JC Penney gave her a gift certificate of $300 value. She was received there with great care and concern and given lots of clothing and shoes etc. In addition to the $300 she was given other gifts. According to those with her the store personnel fell totally in love with Mariam. Other stores are offering to help as well. The ABC affiliate in Pitttsburgh spent 2 hours at Dr Aboosi's home yesterday filming Mariam and they all fell in love with her. They aired a five minute piece last night that was very good, according to reports. We hope that AP TV picked it up and sent it worldwide. Mariam has an appointment with a pediatric eye specialist next week. We are working on an appointment with the oncology department in Pittsburgh Children's Hospital. Thanks to all who helped make this possible. Very best, Mark and Krista Clement -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a discussion list run by the Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq For removal from list, email soc-casi-discuss-request@lists.cam.ac.uk Full details of CASI's various lists can be found on the CASI website: http://welcome.to/casi
