Thank you Diamonds & Denim Gala guests

11/5/2010
I wanted to thank each of you who attended our Diamonds & Denims Charity Gala for Moffitt Cancer Research.  How do I find the words for the wonderful thing you did by contributing to this great cause?  Your gifts for the cause meant a lot to me and Dennis and we were overwhelmed by the turnout with hundreds of people attending.

Your contributions meant that we reduced the time before a cure can be developed.  I believe it meant that someone will suffer less because of your kindness and participation and I count it a privilege that you cared enough to partner with Spa Moritz. 

My brother Dean has been battling with cancer for 13 years and has just finished a bone marrow transplant. Dean continues to survive.  I know the relief we felt as a family when they said it was a success.  I know how thankful to God we were because we have more time with him.   But there are  too many who are still battling for their lives.  A child with cancer may draw on our hearts more but the fact is every cancer victim is someone’s child and is a precious irreplaceable gift. 

We want to thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for your contribution to this worthy cause.   Alone it may not be impossible to beat such an imposing giant but together we can and we will find that cure!   We are already planning another one perhaps in early May 2011.  Thank you for being a giver.  Thank you for your support and your contributions.  We hope to see you again soon.
Blessings,
Dyan
