Well the fundraiser has come and gone, after many months of preparation we have finally seen the light. The event which took place on October 4, 2008 (olivia's 3rd birthday) was a great success. There were 340 of our family, friends and friends of friends. We are so thankful and grateful for the amazing turnout, and generosity of the people.
Olivia was an angel on that evening and did not say a peep. She just went from arm to arm and smiled and laughed and also danced a little. It lit up our hearts to see her so happy, almost as though she knew that everyone was there to help her. We were very honored to be surrounded by such loving, caring and giving people. Thank you to all our sponsors who made all the raffles possible and raised us over 6000$ alone in raffle ticket sales.
The evening was a great success and we are very proud to say that we have raised enough money to be able to take Olivia for her first round of treatments. It means the world to us to think and know that all of you have made this possible for Olivia.
All we can say right now is that all your prayers are needed on October 26, 2008 which is when Olivia will begin her new journey. Thank you seems to be not enough, after all of the help and support that we have receieved.
Francesca, Luigi & Olivia
XXXOOO
