[Nfbnet-members-list] Update on Scott Labarre

[David Andrews]

Subject: Update on Scott LaBarre

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are writing to ask for your thoughts and prayers for our friend, 
leader, and brother in our movement. As Scott told us during our 
convention at the end of October via Zoom from his hospital bed, he 
is fighting blood cancer and other medical complications that have 
followed from that. Scott spoke to us frankly, but with conviction 
and determination that he would ultimately win out.

In the six weeks since he spoke to the convention, Scott's condition 
has become more grave. He is still fighting, but the disease, along 
with chemo and other necessary treatments take a combined toll on his 
strength.

Now more than ever, we need our NFB family to keep Scott and Anahit, 
along with their children Alex and Carter, in our collective thoughts 
and prayers. Anahit tells us that she reads the many messages of 
love, support and encouragement Scott receives from friends all over. 
He knows that we are all pulling for him!  And we also know that he 
would want us to keep all of you informed.

With love and determination,

NFB of Colorado Family
