Dear Dias Family:  My heart, thoughts and prayers go out to all of you during this extremely difficult time.  Reading through all the entires brings out how wonderful and remarkable a person that Irene is.  Her strength, courage, dignity, positive attitude and above all unwavering faith is truly inspirational.  With the encourging news in her treatment progression we all know she will beat this and come back stronger than ever!

Of course with all her family and friends support along with her faith it brings her up closer to Him and closer to healing.  I pray for her everyday.  I don’t know her personally but she sounds like a very loving, caring, kind and thoughtful person who would help out anyone who needed it.  We definitely need more Irenes in this world.  She’s truly an amazing human being!

Thank you for keeping us updated and including us in her journey of recovery.  I do feel like I now know her and feel truly blessed because of it!
