I can honestly say I had the most incredible day of my life. I cannot believe that people would be willing to do half of the stuff they did for me. Today I got in and Cindy was like I have news... and I thought it was something bad but everyone was like Annmarie do not open anything until I get into the room. I was kind of worried about what was going to happen but all the sudden I see Cindy tear up . My heart started to jump, as I open the envelop and I see a cheque drop to the floor ... I read the letter and it is from the optimist club, they raise money so that they can give it away to deserving people. Cindy knew I was in need of money for college, I was not able to afford it. So she went and did this for me and I cried so much I had 500 dollars given to me. This was so incredible... but this was not all. A few minutes later on Cindy got a call back from the optimist club. They want to do more. One of the police officers who teaches at Humber college found out about me and my credentials and wants to do more for me. He wants to set up a full scholarship for both my years and pay for my transportation. I fell to the floor crying, this has been my dream, my life for many years. I have been to hell and back , life has not been easy for me and money has been hard to obtain . This is a blessing to me ... I am greatful and I am free to do what I want to be doing for the rest of my life. All the police officers and Cindy were in tears. Jodi was hugging me and telling me how proud she was and I was and still am in shock. These people have a special place in my heart and I love them all very much, never in my life did I think this was going to happen to me and I am just truly honored and touched. Now more then ever I am going to achieve my dream, my ambitions. Now I have more of a reason to work with Halton than any other police force!! I just think what if it was not for my co op, what happens if I did not meet Cindy, and then I remember.. things happen for a reason.
