thanks to louella for dragging me up and pushing me, we got here. cause, for the healing garden at derriford which saved my life, and for the one we hope to build at treliske. for robin, completing this challenge is massive. it's massive for us at derriford and it's massive for treliske, to raise money for healing gardens across the south west. these gardens make a massive difference for patients in intensive care in every hospital every day, so it's just phenomenal. when you take people outside after they've been in intensive care for a long period of time — or even for a short period of time — and you show them a blue sky or a grey sky, or even let them feel drizzle on their hands, it's often incredibly moving. and it's moving because it shows people that life is going to go on and that there is life waiting for them outside intensive care and outside of a hospital bed. it's anything you want it to be, from a gym to where somebody spends their last hours of life, to where a married couple of 40 years can hold hands for the last time, to a place fo

and louella is very unhappy with me. about 30 minutes later there was a commotion out in the hall, and in the door of the republican leader's office came two beagles, three secret service men and the president of the united states, and lyndon johnson said to everett dirksen, if you won't come down and have a drink with me, i'm here to have one with you and they disappeared into the back room. later that same year, around a long table in that same office the democratic president and the republican leader worked out the civil rights act of 1968. it took 67 votes to break a filibuster, but when the bill passed and johnson signed it, the senators who voted no went home and said it's the law. we have to accept it. and it still is today along with many other civil rights laws. so that's the one idea i have for this speech. our country needs a united states senate to work across party lines to force broad agreements on hard issues, creating laws that most of us have voted for and that a diverse country will accept. in the 1930'
