Let’s do this for the boys and girls!

I think we all need to remember that there are lots of men and women overseas who are in the Armed Forces and assuring our Freedom. A friend told me of one man’s concern over in Afghanistan. He sees his fellow soldiers not getting mail or packages from home. I want to start a letter writing campaign and ‘comforts from home’ drive for these wonderful Americans.

My office will be a collection point. Have your children write letters and draw pictures. We’ll have stationary in the office for your kids while waiting for their appointments. Funny thing happened as I was thinking of this. My son and I were talking and he’s donating a bunch of candy for the troops. He figures that they probably get the necessities of life, but not the fun or luxuries! I never thought of it that way. Ask your children what they would miss if they couldn’t go down to the store and buy it.

My office is MacKoul Pediatrics Fort Myers, 8530 Granite Court, Fort Myers, FL 33908. 239-415-1131. Email is [email protected]. I can’t wait to see what the children come up with!
