February Mail Bag

Feb 15, 2012

Thanks to everyone who responded to our newsletter this month.  Here's a sample of what you're talking about...

Thank you for thinking of me on Valentine's Day.  That means a lot to me coming from you. I turned to you to be a part of your Cancer Schmancer Movement.  Your personal support with my mother, my brother fighting cancer, stage 2, reminds me I have a beautiful, young, most accomplished young woman to be a part of my life, success, continuous support.  Please remember I will continue my support for you every day.  I wish you well. -- Christopher B.

Thank you, doll!  Stay positive.  And remember to take care of yourself while supporting your family.  Everyone, please send your good thoughts Christopher's way! xo-F

Thank you so much. God bless you. I'm still battling this thing, and I'm in the hospital right now. This email made my day. ;- Love, Robin

Glad we could help!  Remember, where there's life, there's hope.  Sometimes the best gifts come in the ugliest packages. I'm not glad I had cancer, and I don't wish it on anybody, but I am better for it. Hang in there and stay in touch! xo-F

I doubt that this mail will ever reach you, but I still wanna give it a try. Since I was ten I've been watching the Nanny (I'm turning 19 this Sunday), and it helped me through a lot of though phases. It's the only thing that really makes me laugh every time, although I've seen every episode about 10 times. I just wanted to tell you that I absolutely admire everything you've done, especially with the Cancer Schmancer Movement. Keep on being yourself and doing such wonderful things! Oy, you're fantastic! Your big fan from Switzerland, Lea B.

Oy, you're fantastic, darling!  I'm blushing! And now that you're older, you can pay it forward by being there and being a mentor to others who are going through the same things that you did.  Share what you've learned with the world. xo-F
