		<description>Dear Debbie, I am catching up with all you have written over the last few months. You make it sound fun as well as work. The people you are helping seem to be always enjoying life, which cannot always be so after reading some of the conditions in previous reports. They must be great to work with. Love Auntie Margaret &amp; family

		<description>Debbie, just chanced upon your blog after having hit the next arrow on mine. I’m so impressed by the work you describe. I live a world away in Miami. I send you my best wishes on your efforts. The world is a little fresher and more sparkling with you around. Thank you.</description>

		<description>It has been fasinating reading all your news and seeing the wonderful pictures of you, Bill, the children and the local folk. I have bookmarked your site and will check in on a regular basis. With love from Somerset.</description>

		<description>Hi Debbie

Another visit to you “blog” proved fascinating and impressive viewing once again.  I was particularly fascinated when finding out a bit more about your “day” job.  Also to say that I was touched by the many happy children’s faces which provide a very clear indicator of the positive differences that your involvement with the community of Mindanao is making.  The photographs offer another reminder of the material word that we live in here in the UK and it’s really reassuring to see the value that the children of Mindanao place on the things in life which we might describe as simple, such as clothes, toy cars and the party hooters, too!  If more of the children and families in this country appreciated the important things in life perhaps the numbers of problems encountered in countries like the UK might not be so extreme.  

Keep up the great work and I look forward to another visit to the site soon.

		<description>I must say your website is very interesting.  I was surprised to see John&#039;s comment.  Quite humorous.  Your Mum and Dad also showed me the disc they made of their visit to you.  I really enjoyed it.  Look after yourself.  Uncle Jim.</description>
