Dinner with Helen Thomas, for dmr, lpbk2713 and others who asked

[dmr]

12. What a wonderful dinner date.

I wish I could've been there with you.

When I was girl (I turned 60 last week), my dad on several occasions pointed Helen out to me. Someone who against incredible odds was making it in a man's world, had her own seat in the White House, and was interviewing the President! Dad was real impressed by that. I also remember my dad talking about Helen and Nikita Khrushchev, but I don't remember what it was about.

It's sad to think about that wheel chair, but it's a mobility device that keeps her from the unpleasantness of falling & breaking bones.

Again, thanks for the update, & I hope you get to dine with her again soon.
