THIS IS A LETTER I WROTE TO DR. ESTAFAN BEFORE I DISCOVERED THE EXISTENCE OF THIS REVIEWS WEBITE...
October 2005
Dear Dr. Estafan -
I hope this note finds you well. More time has passed than I would have liked since last I saw you, but I have long intended to write.
Let me once again express heartfelt gratitude for the generosity you showed me. Every time I look in the mirror, every time I'm on a job interview or out with someone and find myself speaking or laughing, I am reminded of what you did. I don't have to be so self-conscious anymore. My teeth don't hurt anymore. Were it not for your kindness and excellent work, these things would still trouble me greatly.
Of acts of kindness, the Prophet Muhammad said, "He who helpeth his fellow-creature in the hour of need, and he who helpeth the oppressed, him will God help in the Day of Travail."
In my opinion, what you did for me is probably not an isolated occurence in your professional or personal lives. But make no mistake: such acts are rare, making them all the more praiseworthy.
I wish you the greatest continued success in your practice, and much happiness in your life.
Warm regards,
Owen M.
