I'm trying to find a copy of the U.S. News article from May 17, 2004.
I went to school with Jana in Wisconsin, and have only recently learned
of her plight.

If anyone has a copy of the article or the follow-up editorial
response, I'd appreciate a copy. That will save me from trudging to
the main branch of the library to look it up in the files.

Thank you.

Thank you so much. I can't wait to read it. I hope I can find a way
to help. I emailed Noel K. a little story which illustrates some of
my, and my friends', history with Jan. Here it is:

When we were growing up, my friend Tom dated Jana. She was a
cheerleader and we were athletes (basketball) from a neighboring town
in Wisconsin. They later went to Music Clinic at the University of
Wisconsin summer programs and participated in a lot of events, groups
together. Years later, when Robber Bridegroom played D.C. at the
Ford's Theater, they performed together again. Jana, in the role she
created on Broadway and Tom in the Barry Bostwick role.
Tom's last name.......Wopat.

I hope we can find some way to help her. I think U.S. News started a
fund to help her make the transition back to the world when she's well.
