Final Christmas Gifts

Dear Common Threaders,

On Monday, Dec. 15, we met at Starbucks, and on Tuesday, Dec. 16, we met at Memorial Drive.  Both days we worked hard to get lots of projects done before Christmas. Now we deserve a well-earned rest.

Merry Christmas to all of you. It has been a pleasure getting to know all of you and to work with you.  Thank  you so much for everything you do for the patients in Houston area hospitals.  I believe that our efforts have made a difference in their lives.  I wish you and your loved ones a joyous and safe holiday season.  And I look forward to seeing you at Starbucks on Jan. 5, 2009 at 2:00 p.m.
