Canceling My Seattle Trip

So I'm going to have to cancel my trip to Seattle. I don't see myself getting out of the hospital earlier than Friday. THIS HURTS. I really want to go but this infection hit me at a bad time.

I will be making sure to refund everyone who donated to me.

What sucks is that my ticket is "non-refundable" and so I can only get a credit. As someone on a fixed income, that's money I don't have. (We need to have a conversation about these airlines and how they scam us)

Unless someone knows how to get a full refund for a roundtrip plane ticket, I'll be walking around with a "credit" for a trip.

I wanted to go to include our voices in this conference and join many others who are pushing for a worker-centered system that makes our lives and the lives of our youth a more dignified one. We need equity, equality and real justice for all of us and I will continue to be a part of it. I'd like to thank Dr. Jill Stein and Kshama Sawant for personally inviting me to this conference and I hope we can meet in person and break bread as fellow workers celebrating building community.
