Thankful To Be Alive Giveaway

Some of you know I have had a rough couple of years after being diagnosed with AML(Lukemia). It has now been over a year since I recieved a Bone Marrow Transplant and I want to celebrate.

I have accumulated many spares over the years and would like to share some of them with you.

I am offering small bags of 200 spares off paper from random Countries as well as slightly larger bags on paper. I will to accomodate as many of you as possible. So far I have 20 of these bags available but intend on putting together more. These are great for beginner or fly speckers as I do check for varieties.

It is open to anyone in the forum. I realise some of you will not be able to email me so let me know and I will email you.

I will cover the postage. (This does include members worldwide).

Hopefully I have all the info required. For now I will send them on a first come first serve basis.

Hi Dianne,

Wow this is amazing news. In this new year I hope that your health problems are all behind you.

I would be glad to receive one of the bags you are generously offering.

I see that you are from NB and so am I. I will email you if that's OK with you.

Regards,

Dan

Thanks, Dianne - Congrats on the good health and may it continue throughout 2019 and well beyond.

You're a peach .. I will email you my address.

Hi Dianne -

I'll take a pass on your generous offer, but as someone recently handicapped compliments of peripheral vascular disease, I understand full well how life can change when our bodies turn on us. Hooray for your 1st year of re-found health...may there be many, many more ! I'll keep you in my prayers that it is so.

My prayers are with you and We will believe you are completely healed. Prayer does work!

Great news, Dianne!! And what a generous offer. I will take you up on that!!

Dianne, so great to hear that you are well.
And great way to celebrate it.
I have all I need, but wanted to say thanks this is a great way of sharing your happiness with others, particularly in the philatelic world.
Cheers,

Great news on the transplant! Great news to celebrate! I will message you my mailing address. Thank and congrats

Congrats Dianne! Great news.

Best wishes for many more years of good health!

Good Day Dianne!
I do not need your kind offer but just wanted to say 'you go girl'! And please pass along thanks to your support group, cancer often impacts more people than just the patient. And of course whomever donated their bone marrow is also a true champion; that is not an easy or pleasant donation.

It is a gift that you are still a part of our community and hobby; we are truly thankful to have you back and active.
Stay Strong,
Don

Thank you for your kind words every one.

It's great to be back

Dianne

It's always great news to hear of someone beating the odds! Hope your good fortune keeps up a good, long time.
Yes, I would be grateful to receive one of your on-paper bags.

Hi Dianne,
had no idea, but great news indeed.
Nice to hear you so chipper.

I'll have a bag of stamps please. (Happy to pay postage)

Here is one of the Legendary "Dianne Earl" covers sent to me 28th March 2011 (Yes! that long ago! )

Even if it's from a stranger, good news like this is hard to walk by without offering a heartfelt congratulations. I hope you remain in good health for many years to come. If still available, I'd be honored to accept one of your packets.
