Shelley Rankin  I can imagine it was a very difficult choice, yet this story certainly touched me. I will keep her and her family in my prayers as well as you. I believe we aren't doing service to God or ourselves if we don't use our talents for good deeds. You are more blessed for it!  Dec 28, 2008 ~ 12:35pm

Trina Knudsen  Hey Matt. It was very touching to read the nomination for the give-away. It is particularly touching to me because I work as a nurse at on the surgical floor of Huntsman Cancer Hospital in Salt Lake. At the hospital I see first hand the challenges of cancer in the lives individuals and their loved ones. I am inspired by the strength, the gratitude and attitude toward life of many of my patients. Thank you for using your talent to bless others. BTW...I love your work :).  Dec 28, 2008 ~ 12:04am
