Bob Dole should go on an extended "vacation", tour, or some such to draw attention

I am disabled myself, and believe it when I say, I do not know how many days I have left on this earth, but I do know each and every one is precious and dear to me, as I fight against the odds. I am mid-40's with MS. THese people will think a whole lot differently the first time they have a stroke, or a sudden brain or neurological event, or any of a zillion other things.
