Even as everything was going on with Dorothy, CVC was emailing me saying she had new worries that review can't take a month; to get an email out from Bruce to staff re your availability to provide gap support/leadership, and desire to talk later today about her newest two worries. I had an hour call with Doug late last night, who is experiencing CVCs concerns as effort to ensure he and Justin no longer provide the support they do now for the President; he spoke with Terry McAuliffe last night who shared this concern and that what is needed is for folks to get calmed down and good decisions made. Below is a draft of an email I will run by Bruce when I am over at the hospital with him - can you share any suggested edits or changes so you feel comfortable? thanks. cdm Dear Foundation Staff (email to direct staff and senior leadership of all the affiliated initiatives): First, I want to thank all of you for the well wishes for my swift recovery= . I am getting better and I am looking forward to being back in the office. Until I am able to return to the office full-time, the President and I have asked John Podesta to serve as a special advisor to support me and the Foundation staff in our work. He has graciously agreed to be available by phone and email, as well as to be in the office periodically, to help provide leadership. Please seek his guidance and decision-making as necessary to ensure the work of the Foundation continues apace while I am out. I am counting on you to continue to do what you do well =96 support Preside= nt Clinton=92s vision for how we can combat climate change, through CHAI equal the challenge of HIV/AIDS and malaria, support a healthy eating and fight childhood obesity, promote economic opportunity and enable sustainable development in service of our mission to strengthen the capacity of people throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence. Once I am settled into a routine, I will update you on when I am available to address matters that might be more efficient for me to handle. Again =96 thanks for all the good wishes.
