We spoke with Diane Dike PhD today, about her lush children’s book, and her special relationship with her dog.More information from her website www.dianedike.org:

She came to the Vail Valley, 10 years ago because she “always wanted to see the beauty of the West.” She came here from Winter Haven, Florida where she was “Angel Belle”, star of the laser show at Cypress Gardens, a professor at Polk Community College, Founder of Dr. D. Ministries-visiting hospitals, nursing homes, prisons in an effort to reach people with the love of Jesus- a school teacher for special education students, and massage therapist. Diane has a doctorate degree in Human Services. She was forced to stop all her activities because of the constant flare-ups from a rare blood disease and other complicating health problems. Her body could no longer handle daily activities which most of us take for granted, let alone a busy schedule that would tire even the healthiest of people. However, Diane found a unique way to fight back and she is ready to try and hit the road again with a wheel chair, a service dog and a smile to last many miles. Her husband is a huge help, “I couldn’t do it with out his support.”
