Dear Editor,

Years ago, I arrived into port committing myself to what I wanted to do for this town. Recently, I realize that the real gift is to feel the generosity of what Cordovans wanted to do for me! I am grateful to each and every energetic volunteer and those that participated in the medical fundraiser event. You’ve done it! You’ve collectively celebrated my life and given me a better chance at managing the multi-system effects of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and trying to address cerebrospinal fluid leak(s). Thank you for your meaningful contributions. I am ever appreciative of the responsive men and women in our Cordova Volunteer Fire Department for their continuous support that goes above and beyond their official duties. A big thank you also goes out to our local AC for providing gluten free foods and supplies.
