Hi, all.  We are just over 100 signatures away from hitting 5,000 on 
the petition I started, "Thyroid Patients Need Better Treatment NOW,"
in memory of my brother, Jordan.  No one should go through what
he did, or what other family members and I did, because of thyroid
disease that either goes untreated for too long (if at all), or isn't
treated well enough. 

Getting 5,000 signatures or more would make a great statement
to the White House when I send in this petition, that there's truly
a lot of people who care about this issue, and they see that it
needs real attention and action.

So, I'm asking of you--can you PLEASE share this petition again,
anywhere and everywhere you can think of, to help us reach
the 5,000 or more signatures??  Be creative!   Ask anyone and
everyone you can to sign--I'm trying, too!   And then I will send
the petition off to the White House, with the best & most persuasive
cover letter I can write, and we'll try our best for some success 
with all this. Here's the link for the petition, so you can share:
https://www.change.org/ThyoidBetterTreatment

Another way to help spread the petition around is by donating
a little to the organization that helps with these petitions--then
they help spread it around to possible signers, too.  I think there's
a "promote" button on this page or the petition page.  I don't get
any money from that, personally--it goes to the group who hosts
the petitions, to help them continue their work.

Thank you SO much to everyone who's supporting this petition,
and for helping us get this far!!  Let's get to 5,000, because I think
my brother Jordan would really like that--and he deserves at least
that much.  He deserved a lot more, too, as do so many others who
battle with thyroid disease.  Let's make it better, for them.  Thanks,
and once again, I'm posting my favorite picture of Jordan & me
when we were little...just because I like it.  Best to all of you...
from Jordan's sister, Starr D.
