Dear Believe In Tomorrow,

This week has been wonderful. I just don’t know how to put into words how thankful we are to have been a part of this wonderful program. We have had some wonderful food this week, from Hooper’s, the wonderful food at the picnic and be sure to try Pino’s Pizza (best pizza we have ever had!). We got to come and go as we wanted, no schedule to follow for once in our busy lives. The boat trip to Assateague was so much fun we got to see 3 ponies. And for Madison and myself, our first time on a boat was great! The O.C. Rocket was so much fun as well. Thank you Wayne for allowing Madison’s grandparents to be a part of this very special vacation for Madison.

Thank you Wayne AND volunteers.

Madison and family

Well, it’s hard to believe that it’s time to go. It’s been such a special week. Except for the existence and generosity of this program, we wouldn’t have been able to come to such a place for vacation. We feel very special.

The kids and we are so grateful for a vacation. Our daughter is 3 months into remission and we feel we’ve been given a second chance. Here in the sunshine, the water and the activities, the events of the past year seem far away and to be away from home seems to help let things go. To be allowed to put the worry away for a while and just enjoy the moment. To rest.

The kids are happy, healthy, sun-tanned and verging on spoiled! It’s been good. We are very grateful. A huge thank you to all the volunteers, the sponsors, and Wayne who pull all this together so that we can have such a week. Your efforts are healing on so many levels. Thank you.

When Nicole raised her hand and thanked you at the first meeting, I looked at her and raised an eyebrow. In the middle of the week, she wanted to go to the drug store to get you a card. That took me by surprise, and I raised both eyebrows. Then on the last day, she insisted that the card be in the mail before we left town. Well, that put tears in my eyes.

We’re talking about someone that I have to poke and ask, “Did you say thank you?” every time she gets something from anyone.

So, she really appreciated her trip and the fun that we had with you and your wonderful crew.

I can’t thank you enough for the best vacation we ever had.

Thank you so much for a wonderful beach vacation for our family. The generosity and efforts of all the people and businesses in the area were more than we ever could have imagined. Our kids got to meet new friends in the other families and our strolls to the beach were wonderful. Wayne & the other volunteers hosted a very nice BBQ and made our kids feel welcome. God Bless & keep up the great work.

The O Family
