CNN and the Snake
~ sssssSo here is our story ~
It all begins with a story that has been in the news about a Cobra being lost at the Bronx Zoo (Link to story). While using Twitter with a personal account yesterday (March 28th), I was following a hash tag called #wherethebronxzoocobraishiding and noticed someone had created a Twitter user named "BronxZoosCobra". I found it funny and decided to follow them, and I was actually the first follower.
Within a day the account "BronxZoosCobra" has over 95,000 followers! Since I was the first follower, it was being rumored that I must have created the fake account. I decided to use this to the advantage of MS_Dreams on Twitter and tweeted that if people wanted clues on the location of the snake, they should follow our charity on Twitter. Before I knew it CNN was calling and emailing to get my attention, and they felt there was a connection between MS Dreams and the account "BronxZooCobra"!
I let it fly for a while to try and grow our followers on Twitter but finally broke down and called Abigail Bassett (@AbigailBassett) with CNN. She is truly a great person and we had a nice chat. I got to tell her my side of the story and many details about Multiple Sclerosis Dreams. We had a great chat and a good laugh about the situation.
So Abigail, we would love to see you also follow us on Facebook (Facebook Page) and truly hope to be a part of a future story. I highly recommend anyone on Twitter to follow Abigail, and be sure to check out her website http://www.abigailbassett.com/.
What an interesting evening, I just had to share it with everyone! Thank you all for your continued support of MS Dreams!

MS Friend in need
Hello everyone,
I received a special request from a caretaker of someone with Multiple Sclerosis. She is celebrating her 70th birthday on September 22nd and her caretaker asked for some help. Would you send her a birthday card? You can email dreams@msdreams.org and I can share her name and address with you so it can be sent. It is OK if it is a little belated and it would really make her birthday special. Below is the email minus some details for you to review. I hope everyone can help out and thank you for your support!

Hi,
Im a Caretaker for a Lady who has MS and is confined to a wheelchair . I do as much for her as I can but at times it becomes very hard . She lives by herself and life is a burden to her at times . My heart breaks seeing her every day in the condition she is in . She will be 70 yrs old on the 22nd of this month . Kids and Family dont help alot and im not even sure if anybody will help me celebrate her Birthday .She is always so sad cause nobody really comes arround cause all feel that they have to help her when they visit . If anybody maybe wants to send her a Bday card im sure she would appreciate that and wont feel so forgotten, even if the cards are late.
Thank you so very much

I really hope we can all stick together and make this a special birthday for her!
Sincerely,
