Why hello Mister Dan,

I’m a student at MVRHS and attended the assembly today that had the showing of your movie. It's really amazing how people like you and situations like yours can change someone’s life so much. By listening to your story and having you at the school, my eyes opened more to what’s out there. You changed my life in one afternoon and I thank you so much for that. I’ll grow up always remembering today and remembering you.

Hi Dan-

I saw your movie and Q&A session at the high school yesterday, and I wanted to take a moment to thank you- and your mom. I also have MS and just recently was treated for cancer- you know,chemo and radiation. I am only a few years older than you- 36- so I appreciated your comments onthis not being where you thought you would be at 33. My MS is relapsing/remitting so I have not had experienced what you experience- but I can relate to the dealing with a load of crap you did not sign up for AND enjoying the beneficial side effects such as letting go and being less fearful in life. Its a weird mind bend isn't it?Your movie had such an impact on me- I haven't figured that all out yet- and I wanted to offer thanks.
