Following is a letter from Dana, she requested that I pass it on to all of the wonderful people praying and caring for her.
I would like to thank so many people who have given me the strength and courage to keep going throughout my treatments to beat my cancer, you have all be so good to me, by sending me gifts and your prayers, and all of the kindness shown towards me, I love the emails and the cards that constantly come in and have been so grateful for my faith in God and how he has shown me that the world is full of the most wonderful people.
