Letter #713


From:   Matthew Marks

Location:   Eugene, Oregon

Hello Mr. Obama, First let me congratulate you on you revolutionary election. The reason why I am writing you this letter, is for my friend Abby McDonland, she has eplyepsy(I hope thats how you spell it), anyway she is a small town girl who is very sweet but somtimes has a hard time with her medical problem. She has two wonderfull younger boys. My issue here though is that she went to apply for OHP which is oregon health plan and they told her that she did not qualify for benifits. The medical issue that she has prevents her from moving forward in some areas of her life, like her job, and so on. So i guess the issue here is healthcare in my state for people who really need it, cause what happend to her at the state office wasnt right. Mr Obama, if you could help her in any way to get the medical help that she deserves and needs I will owe you any favor that you ask for. When peoples lives are at stake, is when I drop my foot and do somthing. Thank you for your time and God Bless the Unites States of America. Matthew Anthony Marks Eugene OR Resident for life. P.S. Forgive me on the spelling
