To my dearest TITA DELY and BOBBIT,

With all honesty and sincerity, I find it most difficult to write you, because, any kind of letter could NOT contain everything that is in my heart. But, it has to be said, especially to both of YOU. Danny, my whole family and I are truly BLESSED to have met you and have become part of our lives. You have serve as our "shinning and guiding stars", from the day we have met you. You are a crystal clear sample of a good Christian, not only in words, but more so in deeds. Once again, my family and I, would like to express, how truly grateful and thankful we are for all your "endless" kind heartedness, understanding, patience, guidance, LOVE and PRAYERS. Actually, there are no enough words to really express, the happiness and gratefulness I have in my heart. We love you both so very much!

CAREWELL is another thing. A great thing!!!!! I have been stricken with CANCER since 2001 and I must admit, my family and I had a real tough journey all those years, until, CAREWELL came into my life. I am just so fortunate and blessed to have such "loving and supportive" family, that I was able to go through my journey with flying colors. Nobody could contest, that, the family plays a very important factor in any cancer journey and I am truly blessed, I have the full attention, care, love of my Danny, Sherryl, Noni, Tom, Aris and my five (5) grandchildren. However, coping with cancer is just not about having your family. A cancer patient needs more than that and this is were a "cancer support group" comes in. Relating the journey with "co-cancer survivors" makes a lot of difference….."Dear JACKIE, there is no question, that, you are experiencing the true meaning of happiness and peace in the Kingdom of GOD. Please accept my most heartfelt thanks and gratitude, for putting up through your mom (Tita Dely) and ever loving husband (Bobbit), the CAREWELL CANCER SUPPORT GROUP, where I belong now. I am most certain, you could see the happiness and great help, your cancer support foundation have given not only me, but for the many other cancer survivors called "CAREBELLES". Each and everyone of us, have so much reasons and stories to thank YOU, for this beautiful and noble cause, you together with your family have put up to help go through one's cancer journey. Thank you and please continue praying for Carewell, its volunteers, the Carebelles and all projects we are into. WE LOVE YOU JACKIE!!!

Tita Dely and Bobbit, I know for a fact, that in many occasions, you have helped me in many aspects, even going beyond the purpose, objectives, rules and regulations set forth by Carewell Foundation. That's all in my heart and will be forever grateful. As I have said many times, and will say it again, at this point in our lives, the only way I could repay all your goodness and kindness are through my PRAYERS for you and your respective families. I promise and I commit myself, that I will help in any way I could, and at the best I can, to make CAREWELL the "best" and deserving cancer support group ever put up in the country.

To my "angels" on earth, Tita Dely and Bobbit, "MARAMING MARAMING SALAMAT"!!! I LOVE YOU NOW, AND WILL ALWAYS DO TILL MY NEXT LIFE!!! You and Carewell made my life more meaningful and worth fighting for, despite my cancer. Danny, my four children and five grandchildren will be forever indebted to you. Please keep your love, care, understanding and help "burning" for Carewell and Carebelles (present members and the many more members to join) forever. The world needs people like " YOU "!!!
