Hey Beautiful Ones,

Thanks for checking in on my site. I can't tell you how much it means to me

I've been remiss lately on a few things. Recently, I took a business trip to Spain as the new spokesperson for Viceroy (soft i). I am the representative for their women's line of watches, my male counterpart is Alejandro Sanz. It's a great honor to represent this wonderful company. They make such beautiful watches, as does Wyler Vetta of Italy. I have been doing work with them too!

There are many reasons for doing these ad campaigns. I believe in the people who own the companies. I think they are fabulous and so cool. I still have to make a living plus they made me an offer I couldn't refuse! As always part of my salary will be donated to charities.

As for movies! I am excited to tell you that I have joined the cast of Stuart Little 2! Rob Minkoff, the director, Doug Wick, the producer, (who I also worked with on Working Girl) and Lucy Fisher, (Doug's wife and partner) have asked me to be Margolo, a "highly sophisticated" bird who becomes Stuart Little's pal! I think it's going to be really fun!

On an entirely different note, I have a favor to ask. My best friend, Heidi Von Beltz, was in an accident 20 years ago while filming a stunt on the film Cannonball Run. She was put in a car that had been switched from a left hand drive to right hand drive. The production was in a hurry, they were losing the light, the switch was done rather haphazardly and a seat belt was not installed. For the stunt Heidi was in the passenger seat in a car going about 60 miles per hour headed straight for a van. The driver was supposed to veer off at the last minute, but was unable to because the steering column locked and they crashed into the van.

As a result of the crash, Heidi broke her neck at the fifth vertebrae and has been paralyzed ever since. This woman is the strongest person I know! She is defying all odds and will walk again. I introduced Heidi to Dr. Catherine Saltzman, an amazing woman who has been working with me. Catherine's mentor is Dr. Dick Versendaal. He's a doctor whose treatments are so advanced that once everyone knows about his method of healing it will change everything so much. The two of them are working together to help Heidi. To find our more on this treatment, you can visit www.crahealth.org.

Now please, could you say a little prayer for Heidi? Or just send good thoughts her way. Positive thinking heals! She needs lots of help to do this! To find out more, please go to her website at www.followyourheart.org.

I thank you from the core of my heart for your kindness and good energy.

By the way, I love all of your posts on the message board!.

XOXO
With love and respect,
Melanie
