This Isn’t Our Last Love Letter 

   
Dear Don Don,
 
Way back in 92

I walked into the room and knew

Never felt this way before

I shook your hand while gazing into your eyes

And the feeling grew

As I took a seat I knew

A love that would have my heart

Forever

I knew

Way back in 92


They say love at first sight doesn’t always last or isn’t true

We were the exception to that rule

Our love had no where to hide

A spark set fire

As if this is how the universe started


I never doubted our love or what we could do

Together we grew

Forming a bond everlasting

That became our glue

My euphoria was YOU

I’m eternally grateful for the love and life we shared

For how fortunate we were :

“to have and to hold
through sickness and in health
Til death do us part”

Until we are together again

This isn’t our last love letter

I love you with all my heart and soul

Yours forever,

Deirdre  (Mrs. Hank Snow)

I’m fortunate to have fallen in love with, marry and make a life with the sharpest, coolest, funniest, most rare, bad ass, tender loving, loyal man on the planet, my husband Don Imus.


A True American Hero

 

I don’t know why it has been so hard for me to write about my dear friend Don Imus.

I certainly know what he meant to me, my family, my charity, my hospital and the millions of fans that listened and loved him for so many years.


I keep reading all the beautiful condolences that people are writing about how much a part of their lives were effected by listening to him over the years.

But what most people don’t talk enough about is what he did for all of us.

 

In every sense of the word, he was an American Hero. His work with children with so many different illnesses and his dedication to their future was unmatched by anyone I have ever known or heard about.

Besides raising over $100,000,000 for so many causes, he took care of young people for over 20 years in a state where he could not breathe.  Along with his incredible wife Deirdre, he created a world where children were not defined by their disease. That was a miracle! He was a miracle.

 

I will miss him ever day for the rest of my life.
I was blessed to be a part of his and Deirde’s life.
No one will ever do what he did.
I love you Don Imus - A TRUE AMERICAN HERO

A Tribute To Don Imus

Children’s Health Defense joins parents of vaccine-injured children and advocates for health freedom in remembering the life of Don Imus, a media maverick in taking on uncomfortable topics that most in the mainstream press avoid or shut down altogether. His commitment to airing all sides of controversial issues became apparent to the autism community in 2005 and 2006 as the Combating Autism Act (CAA) was being discussed in Congress. The Act, which was ultimately signed into law by George W. Bush in December of 2006, created unprecedented friction among parents of vaccine-injured children and members of Congress; parents insisted that part of the bill’s billion-dollar funding be directed towards environmental causes of autism including vaccines, while most U.S. Senators and Representatives tried to sweep any such connections under the rug.

Don Imus Leaves a Trail of Way More Than Dust 

Don Imus Was Abrupt, Harsh And A One-Of-A-Kind, Fearless Talent

By Michael Riedel - The one and only time I had a twinge of nerves before appearing on television was when I made my debut in 2011 on “Imus in the Morning” on the Fox Business Channel. I’d been listening to Don Imus, who died Friday at 79, since the 1990s as an antidote the serious (bordering on the pompous) hosts on National Public Radio. I always thought it would be fun to join Imus and his gang — news anchor Charles McCord, producer Bernard McGuirk, comedian Rob Bartlett — in the studio, flinging insults back and forth at one another. And now I had my chance. I was invited on to discuss to discuss “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark,” the catastrophic Broadway musical that injured cast members daily.

Thursday: Biden's Foot Still in Mouth, Pig Virus for Everybody, and Send All the Rich Morons to Space

  • Biden doesn’t disappoint…again: Wacky, “uncle-with-lampshade-on-head,” U.S. Veep-guy distinguishes self at historic healthcare bill signing by turning to President and declaring “This is a big f--king deal!” as he welcomes Mr. Obama to lectern.  “Testing, testing…is this thing on?”  Yes, Mr. Vice President.  It most certainly was…“on.”  Just check YouTube. 
  • Nancy Pelosi gets quick experience in revamped health care system.  Needs medical attention, furious fanning after near fatal “giddiness attack” aggravated by extreme case of the “vapors” when President labeled her, “one of the best speakers the House of Representatives has ever had!”  Briefly caused Pelosi to scream, “Oh God! Oh God! as eyes crossed, limbs spasmed and body convulsed.  Expected to be fine…till immigration bill comes up.   
  • Govt. recommends doctors suspend using Rotarix, a rotavirus vaccine, because it’s got pig virus in it.  Product’s from GlaxoSmithKline which emphasizes that pig virus is not known to cause illness in humans.  So relax.  Only some 30-million kids have gotten the stuff.  Feds, too, say it ought’a be okay, far as they know.  What’s to worry?
  • "Who designed these things, Akio Toyoda?"  Study finds that new generation airbags – computerized, so-called “smart bags” introduced in ‘04 – have an unfortunate characteristic: Turning you into pizza.  A 21% higher death risk – especially if you’re properly belted in – than if you were smacked across the puss by a pre-2004 bag.  
    So buckle up?  You lose.  Okay, don’t buckle up?  You lose.  Great…
  • And speaking of Toyota… Investigators find a “Smoking Gas Pedal.”  An undisclosed Toyota repair document from August 2002 – eight years ago – that showed the company’s cars had a “sudden acceleration” glitch and that electronics were at the bottom of it.  Service bulletin went out to all dealers and was hidden – not only by Toyota but also by your friendly, ever-vigilant U.S. Government.   And they want to run healthcare??
  • "80,000 people who tick you off." The 80,000 who have already bought a $200,000 ticket for a ride on zillionaire Richard Branson’s spaceship that passed some test yesterday.  You’re living in a Maytag carton and these people have all just dropped the price of a condo on the nauseating self-indulgency of playing Buzz Lightyear for five suborbital minutes.  80,000 x $200,000?  That’s $16-billion bucks.  Somebody needs a beatin’.
  • "So, a bank robber walks into a bar flashing his buttocks..." No joke.  Fugitive Elbert Thompson, age 20, is in a Pennsylvania jail after walking out of a Pittsburgh hospital and into a bar…precisely as described.  Got him in a routine traffic stop; took him to the hospital when he complained he felt ill.  Tried to flee but was relatively easy to pick out of bar crowd:  Not many there barefooted, wearing a hospital gown, with an I-V needle in their arm.
