excuse me.
My cell phone is ringing!!!
On the very serious side.
This team has united the city.
The owner wanted to move the team out of New Orleans.
New Orleans, Louisiana
I collected musical instruments including donating my own tenor saxophone, keyboard, and violin for a parish school system in New Orleans.
I also assisted on acquiring mobility devices for the population because there were many people that were not Senior citizens that needed these items.
This was in 2005 and the project continued...
I was invited to attend the Celebration on Monday Night, September 25, 2006 in the New Orleans Superdome.
I couldn't attend.
I was told I had Multiple Sclerosis on September 26, 2006.
The irony of it all was that I discovered the mobility devices I had worked to secure went to the local MS Chapter in Louisiana.

I have always loved the Saints.
I now equate the reopening of the Superdome with the first day of my new life with MS.
Seeing the Saints play in the Dome, it reminds me that I have made a difference in the life of some unknown person...just like watching and supporting the Saints with my entire heart reminds me to never give up or never surrender.
And what I love the best about working for UPS is that it matters that I can make a difference.
Now you know the rest of my story.
