"Why I Am A Nelson Fan"
I've been a
Nelson fan since the 90's. I guess you could say I was a pretty "loyal"
fan considering the first time I saw them in concert was at Great America
in Santa Clara, CA in 1991. I had strep, with a high fever, made it through
the opening band, (got sick in front of them later!) got to see Nelson
play 1 song and hear the rest laying in the car in the parking lot!
I've now been
blessed to see the guys at least once a year since 1999. They are the greatest
in person! (Like I expected less!) My life has taken me through several
rough turns and I've taken my Nelson music and Ozzie and Harriet DVD's
with me.
Between having a first husband with a bad temper (I'm sure a few of you
can relate... and if you're still in that situation... GET HELP!! IT WON'T
GET ANY BETTER!!) To being diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2002, losing
half my eye site, gaining a ton, losing energy, and my memory? It's gone!
Oh and they shaved the front part of my head! Anyway, through it all, I
would hum Nelson songs during my radiation treatments and watch Ozzie and
Harriet and Nelson concert DVD's during my Hyperbarric treatments. This
"compressed" Nelson even deeper into my brain! hehe
So, although
I've been a Streetteam member since 2001, I haven't been up to "officially"
promoting them. I do promote them word of mouth, and have made a few new
fans that way. I've donated to St Jude for over 20 years, but, most of
my time has now turned to the National Brain Tumor Foundation's Angel Adventure
Walk each year, where, the past two years, Gunnar has given his permission
for me to use "Just Once More" as my team name for the walk. Thank you
again Gunnar!!
I'm hoping
to have more energy to participate more with the Streetteam this year.
I'm not so sure about turning in the points though. It doesn't seem right
to get something for giving to something you believe in. It's better to
just give what you can, love & enjoy life, family and friends and of
course.... be a #1 Nelson Fan!!
