Alison and I want to extend the warmest thanks to everyone who helped contribute to Alison's Fund. All told, A Dream for Alison raised more than $2250! That is so amazing to us. We've used it to cover the trip to H. Lee Moffit Cancer Center in Tampa, FL, and most recently, to send Alison home to see her family.
Last year while I was in Japan, my boss' daughter was in a riding accident, and she got kicked by her horse. Each person in my unit did just a little, if it were only to inquire about her and pray for her. He was moved. I can't really descibe what it was like to see tears in his eyes, but it's stuck with me.
He said, "I never wanted to need the support like we often do for those in need, but being on the receiving end of it is overwhelming."
She recovered, and I feel like my boss was a better man after the experience. That's where I'm at now. I'm moved. Nothing I can say will do it justice. I will be forever greatful to each reader of our blogs, to each friend and family member.
Being on the receiving end of it is overwhelming.
