Happy Saturday Everyone!
Thank
you for taking time out of your day to tune in! Living in a community
you get a chance, over time to see the difference that leaders can make
on the quality of life and the overall impact that they make in moving
forward in developing ways to meet a communities needs, regardless of
the budgets, the politics, or the circumstances which are constantly
changing. Never perfect, but focused on the mission and seeming to
understand that it is about progress not perfection, mission, not
personalities, we have two such leaders creating solutions in our
community that for many make for a much more restful sleep at night for
all families in Wilmington.

I SPY:
so
this week I went to a board meeting. yep...that should come as no
shock..I am pretty sure that either when I am called home or the second
coming happens, I will be in a board meeting or at a fundraiser...either
of the two..but regardless, I will be in good company and this meeting
was no exception. We were there to decide were we were going and how to
give out the money raised from this year's tournament. What a great
discussion and on the birthday of the person to whom we dedicate the
tournament each year. Our doc, who is a founding member and served to
help keep our memorialized player alive to the end, was there and he
said " i have something to show you"...well, like most docs he had some
statistics...26 million people live with chronic kidney disease, over
500,000 await a transplant..but this doc...this one, pulled out his
little computer and showed a presentation that he had done for duke and
chapel hill..mind you he is a NHRMC doc..and our homeboy..but he is such
a fierce advocate for what he does..he has gone eveywhere to see how to
build bigger networks, across company lines, becuase it is about saving
lives, making better quality of life, and doing right for
patients...and interestingly enough..it is helping them financially in
the end...by the end of his presentation of a case study..we were all
stunned. Powerful and life affirming...you just never know in your
community who can harness their talents, their resources to make a
difference..you never know when one life is going to change another.
Willie Stargell is who we honor with our tournament and raise funds for
kidney disease..and it was Willie who was treated by this doc..and
Willie changed his life forever...and now...because of the money for the
tournament and what is being done..right here, through NHRMC...lives
are saved, transformed..made better...Willie lives..and this week..I spy
Dr. McCabe...a Doc who lives the mission, the oath and serves a higher
calling and purpose and is like so many of us transformed by events and
forever doing something good as a result.
Affirmation and sign off:
HAVE A NICE DAY, UNLESS YOU HAVE MADE OTHER PLANS!
