No editing required!!

Dan you have written a truly wonderful letter from your heart. It is perfect as it is! Please send it! Share your story with Oprah and the world!!

PS: My DH wears 36 pants and I can guarantee you won't need a belt extender on the plane!!

I absolutely agree with everything that has been said previously. Please, Dan, if you haven't submitted this to Oprah, do so ASAP!!

Have a great day!
Lois

Dan

i too needed a kleenex warning! you are such an inspiration to me - thank you for sharing your story and PD so that Oprah's team recognizes you on a show!

just one editing question: I thought I read before on the photo album that your Dad said "you fill up" in the letter you have "you fill out" - i know it's trivial but you asked

Wovenwonder - my Mom has said that exact thing! Someone should submit something to her website about our group too! Be sure to inclue our dream to have a meet on the DCL one day!!

That is an amazing letter. Thank you for sharing it with us.

No changes to suggest...

Dan,
Thanks for sharing your story with us. It's perfect just the way you've written it. I can't wait to see you on Oprah!

 

[Debbie]

I can't wait to see you on Oprah!

Oooooh! And we'll all be watching, and say, "I remember when. . ."

It's great, just the way it is, Dan! Thanks for sharing!

I think this letter is perfect just the way it is now. You write well, Dan.

This is exciting. Just think, if you are chosen you will probably get to sing on her program and there will likely be a scout in the audience. Just so exciting!

Good luck with this.

Wonderful, Dan! I wish I lived in New York so I could be in the audience!

This is REALLY not even close to the reaction I was expecting, but I love it just the same. Thank you all so much.

OhMom - you're right. I should probably go with what I had in the album because it was fresh in my memory, and it was a little bit fuzzy when I wrote the letter. Thank you!

I can't send it out just yet. I've got to get some shots of me now. Once that's done, I promise I will send. And with the exception of OhMom's note, I won't change a thing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you everybody! You ALL inspire me too!!!!!

Oh, and Debbie, Oprah tapes in Chicago!!! Does that help any? IF (see how big that if is?) I get on the show, I'll be sure and let you all know. And IF (see how big that is again?) I get on, I'll be sure to mention WISH.

You don't need our help but you are certain to give help to millions of others!!!!!

WTG!!!!!!!

Hi Dan! And you think you are not good at verbalizing? I think verbalizing is another thing to add to your top 5 (or 10!...remember your thread?). I love your letter. It made me well up too, along with many others, apparently! Good tears, mind you! Now, send your letter! It's good! I, my DH, and DS leave for WDW next Wed...I wish we could take you with. Well, I will at least have one spin in the tea cups in your honor...just for you. How's that?
