Help the Victim of a Motorcycle Accident
In June of last year (2008) a very good friend of ours (mostly my husband's) was in a very serious motorcycle accident. Though we have only ideas of what happened (which may not be his fault entirely), he is currently in a wheelchair. I understand that he will be getting SSDI sometime in April or up to five months after that. What I am mostly looking for is Physical & Speech Therapy for him...preferrably on a daily basis. I believe this will help to stimulate his muscles & help him to become more self-reliant. His wife also needs help in that she is constantly at his side & is struggling to help him as much as she can, at the cost of her own health & well-being. I don't really know where to go for the information to get specific help for them. They have a home up in Newville, of which I am afraid they will lose for lack of income & insurance (stretched to its limit) as well as not enough help to care for him, his wife & their two children & of course their dog. These people haven't made an impact on your life, but they have been sweet, wonderful & caring people to all they know. There have been fundraisers & generous people, but mostly thru where he used to work. I really don't want to have their lives invaded to the point of losing their own lives to the world, but I would love to get them the necessary help that they need RIGHT NOW. He is without therapy right now & he has regressed some. I pray that you will be able to help me find the programs that will be able to help him now, so that he will be able to regain a more normal life. Time is of the upmost importance. I thank you for any help.

The Lebanon Dream Dinners is proud to give back to the community through its 3rd annual Pay It Forward Campaign
On Saturday, April 4th, the Quentin Circle Dream Dinners store in Lebanon will be culminating 6 weeks of community outreach work into a full day of assembling Easter dinners for families in need throughout Lebanon County. The store owners and staff will be volunteering their time, alongside community volunteers and organizations such as Catholic Charities, Fort Indiantown Gap, The Caring Cupboard, Lebanon County Christian Ministries, Bridge of Hope, Step Into Life, and Ronald McDonald House, and will be assembling as many as 300 pork roast dinners for distribution to families in need in the region.
Founded on the notion of making life easier for families everywhere, the company is dedicated to improving the quality of family life beyond the dinner table. Dream Dinners is about home and community, family and friends, and helping to bring them all together in meaningful ways.
I would love to get the word out to your listeners about this exciting campaign.
Below, please find further information on Dream Dinners—a retail location where working mothers and fathers, singles, newlyweds, and seniors can gather to assemble 12 healthy, homemade dinners that can be popped out of the freezer, thawed and into the oven for a home-cooked meal without all the hassle of prep work, grocery shopping and clean-up.
Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I can be reached at 516.437.1810 or Stefanie@rtcpublicity.com
