Michael has a milestone birthday coming up in February 2018. I ran an idea past Gail that passed with approval.
I have small cards that are 2.5X3.5. The idea for the card is not to say happy birthday, but you have room to put a few sentences to tell Michael why you love him, his music or how his music helped you in hard times. It’s should be big enough for a wallet size photo if you would like.
Then when he’s home sitting at his desk, he can pull 1 or 2 cards to read when he has the time. Our words will be with him all year.
I request a SASE, and I will send you a card. Write your note and put in your picture. When your finished, mail it back to me.
For those out of the country, I checked with my postmaster and she said you can put your own postage on the return envelope equivalent to $1.15 US.
Email me, Sally, at MYSCRTPSSN@gmail.com and I can give you an address to send your SASE (self addressed stamped envelope).
A second option that isn’t as personal, is to email me a short note and I can cut and paste it onto a card for you. I don’t want to handle pictures this way because I’m not that computer literate and don’t want to make errors with something as personal as a picture.
When all the cards are gathered, I’ll put them in some sort of decorate box. And the box of cards will be Michael’s birthday gift from us.
It might seem early, but it’s something that we can work on Now through January. I’d like to be finished by February since I would need to get a box and mail it off to Michael.
Your welcome to share my email with anyone you think may be interested in contributing to Michael’s milestone 65!
Looking forward to hearing from you, Sally

Hi Pamela and have just read your blog about Dan and a truly wonderful but heartwrenching story at the same time and what I would suggest is that you contact Gail Atkinson, who is the moderator of the forum, about Dan and tell her your story as she is the only person, on here, who has direct contact with Michael's immediate staff and maybe, just maybe, if it could be arranged a personal message from Michael to Dan may work wonders......just a thought but PLEASE I am not saying anything like that would be possible for it is just an idea but if you think it would work, or do anything at all, then possibly you could ask Gail if it could be given consideration.

Wishing you all the luck in the world with your invaluable work Pamela !! :)  Hoping too that you may find some links on the forum that will take you to performances of Michael's that Dan hasn't heard and if played to him may just bring back some of the sparkle.....I hope so !!! :)  We do have a thread in the General Chat about Michael Section called "New Videos on Youtube" and that contains numerous links and in particular a lot of material from Michael's last two shows in CA in August which are exceptionally good especially too him singing "Jack Sparrow" live for the first time on a concert stage.....hope you manage to find something that Dan likes !!! :)

Sylvia.  Your wee Scottish friend.
