Believe In Tomorrow -

Thank you all so much for everything you all have done for us and given us during our stay at the House By The Sea. This has been the best mini-vacation our family has had since Austin was diagnosed with retinoblastoma.

We have been able to be a family, relax, rejuvenate and spend more time with both of our boys, especially our oldest, Landon. He has had a wonderful time playing at the beach.

We are truly grateful for everything Mr. Wayne, the volunteers and the sponsors have done for us this week. This has absolutely been an amazing week!

Thank you all again,
God bless you all!

...came to our family's rescue

"Thank you" just doesn't seem sufficient. Believe In Tomorrow has helped our family more than you can imagine over the past 2.5 years. Having a child diagnosed with cancer literally rocks your world. You lose a sense of balance and of peace. During the most difficult times, Believe In Tomorrow came to our family's rescue. Your respite homes gave us the opportunity to enjoy each other, have fun together, and regain that sense of balance and peace. We have been blessed with the opportunity to visit each of your homes and each time we have gone home rejuvenated, re-connected, rested and with memories that will last a lifetime. This trip will probably go down as the best of all - to see our son finally off chemo and enjoying life was wonderful!! He is truly blossoming right before our eyes. So, though it doesn't seem like enough - THANK YOU!! Believe In Tomorrow has blessed our family and we appreciate everything everyone has done for us!!

There aren’t enough words to express...

Dear Believe in Tomorrow – Volunteers and especially Wayne,

We feel so lucky and special to have been invited to stay at the house. I didn’t know what to expect since my kids are a little older (22,18,14) but they had a great time. We met so many nice families and my kids loved playing with the younger ones. All of the activities were awesome (go karts, Hoopers, LaHacienda, surf lessons, bike riding, O.C. Rocket, the water part, portrait on the beach, but we especially enjoyed the cookout.) There aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are. This trip came at the perfect time because we just found out that our 14 year old daughter who had Hodgkins Lymphoma for the past 10 months is cancer free so we really could celebrate.

Thank you so much.
Love,
Sandy, Randy, Ryan and Brandy

More than we ever imagined

Our stay at the Believe in Tomorrow House by the sea was fantastic. We were treated so special and it was more than we ever imagined. One of the most memorable nights was the cook-out. Everyone was so nice, the food was great, and the other special families we met will be in our hearts forever. We also have the portrait on the beach of our family and all of the other families so we can look back and remember everyone. I didn’t know what to expect because my kids are 22, 18, and 15 but we really bonded and spent the whole week together. Surf lessons, go kart riding, bike riding, nice dinners, and relaxing on the beach together. We also loved the amazing water part and of course the O.C. Rocket where we even saw dolphins up close. I can’t thank-you enough for letting us be able to share this wonderful experience after such difficult times. Please share my thank-you with all involved in the Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation. Ihope you all know how truly special you are.

Believe In Tomorrow,

This week has been wonderful. Our kids love the ocean and couldn’t get enough. When we first arrived, Alexis said “Can we stay here forever?” After a week of fun the question still remains the same.

This was a welcome break from our everyday lives, dr. appts. and work. We really appreciate it along with the lovely staff and cool activities.

To the other families; create lots of memories, take plenty of pictures, stay strong, pray often and know that God heals and everything will be okay.

I hope we’ll be back again and the kids want to give you a very BIG THANK YOU!!!
