If you or a loved one ever faced a life threatening diagnosis, you’ve learned about what worked and what didn’t work. That is the most powerful story in health care today.
SRI International (formerly the Stanford Research Institute) and I are developing TulaHealth, the place where you will find the best wisdom of the crowd. It starts with The Tula Story Project. I am working with non-profits and health care stakeholders to create a database of patient wisdom.
Your donation supports our mission, underwriting the cost of editing and producing. Any amount enables me to donate patient stories to non-profit websites. You’ll see some of these stories right here on Carol Lin Reporting. In April 2009, a Tula Story Project will launch with the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation where our stories will help patients find the right information that could save their lives.
This is my new life and why as newlyweds, Mike Dowling and I are asking that, in lieu of wedding presents, you might support our favorite charities by either making a direct donation on their website or donate here and sponsor a story for the following non-profits. Any amount makes a difference!
1. CancerCare.org
2. TheLungCancerFoundation.org
3. Engage With Grace
“Tula” is based on a Scandanavian word that means “to come together, join us”.
Thank you for doing just that.
I’m here for you,
Carol Lin

<p>I have stopped watching CNN since you left, and I look forward to you coming back, anywhere, …soon!<br />
Is there any possiblity of that?<br />
You were the nicest person on any of these shows.</p>
William, I love my time at CNN. Wouldn’t trade it for the world. I would want you to watch the news. Someday you might see a story that could change your life, or just simply change your mind about something. You never know. This is my home for now. And when people like you come to visit, comment, ask questions about what’s happening in health care, then maybe I can make a different kind of difference. When you vote in a poll, maybe I can get it to the right member of Congress. When you comment on a post it gives me story ideas. It’s all good.

I am glad I found you on-line. I don’t watch CNN anymore, I have switched to Fox News. I was upset with the fact that they let you go and also Daryn Kagan. I personally think that you two were the best when delivering the news. I hope you are happy with what you are doing.
Good luck to you

I am sitting at my kitchen table, having just read your journal posts,with tears running down my face. You must be an incredibly strong person to deal with what you have had to face with such strength and grace. I wish that you were still on CNN
