Dear Mr. Heybroek,

Thank you for your kind offer. I would gladly accept any assistance.
You may have seen an interview on ITV's World in Action several weeks
ago, where Renee's story was the focus.
If you have the contacts, please pass along to British Airways my
applause for their new policy on the issue. I believe that it is an
important first step in resolving the problem. I hope that other air
carriers worldwide soon follow in B/A's contrails.
Thanks very much,
Mike Sheffer
