It dawned on me why I was attracted to Reeling & Healing Midwest and not other similar organizations. It is about HOPE, the future and having fun. I feel great volunteering and helping R&HM ��� and always look forward to the next time I���m going to be there.

I had a GREAT time learning a little about fly fishing, a number of things about other survivors and also some things about myself. It was a smashing success and I look forward to my photos. My very best wishes to all of the incredible volunteers who are so devoted to Reeling & Healing Midwest.

Thank you for the opportunity to experience a retreat. The memories will be taken with me for the rest of my life. It was such a powerful time. I could never have dreamed I would have left with so much. I will be forever blessed because of my time in the river and the women I met.

Just a note to let you know how honored I was to be given the opportunity to assist with the retreat. I felt truly blessed to be part of the experience. As I am sure you could tell, I can be an emotional guy much like the others and it was a life-changing experience.

My son volunteered at a retreat last summer. I wanted to thank you for the opportunity you gave him. It truly made him a better person and if he pursues medicine, I am confident that it will make him a better doctor. That being said, I am so impressed with what I���ve seen, I was wondering if I could participate in the future? I am not nearly the fly fisherman my son is, but if there���s something that I can do to help, please let me know.
Thank you again for the opportunity to make a father proud.

I wanted to thank you for such an amazing retreat. The ladies I road with were already reminiscing on the way back home. Each one of us truly had an inspiring, enjoyable, and refreshing three days. The photos you sent were great.

Once again thank you for a wonderful weekend of fishing and healing. The staff was wonderful and the retreat spectacular. The staff were extremely outgoing, compassionate and very helpful. Every request was fulfilled with a smile!
I will treasure all my memories from this retreat along with the many wonderful women who are also cancer survivors that I met.

I arrived at the New Participant retreat and was welcomed with open arms. After introductions and hearing everyone���s story, I walked over to dinner asking myself ���Why am I here?���, as I considered my cancer ���minor��� to many of the other participants. I must admit I felt a bit out of sorts. I am so glad that I came, stayed and experienced the retreat. I found being with the other women so enlightening. Oh, what spirits they have ��� and strength. The experience of fishing, being surrounded by the river, was an indescribable peace ��� more than the expression ���one with nature��� could ever fill. I fell very much in love with the entire concept. I can���t wait to come again and help out any way possible.

I just wanted to send a quick hello and thanks for a wonderful day of fishing and camaraderie. It was a pleasure to be there with my mom. She had a tremendous experience at her New Participant retreat and is looking forward to volunteering.
