August 25th

Dear Family, Friends and Fans.
Hi there all!

I would like to preface by thanking everybody who has been involved with the various American Red Cross events recently, and to those of you who have helped make the actual blood drives happen, congratulations and THANK YOU!!!
The American Red Cross is such a terrific and important organization that saves many lives every year and I am very proud to be associated in any way I can.

As you know yesterday was my birthday and thanks to everybody around me I had a really great day. In fact it was amazing.
Another year older, but not necessarily wiser!
To answer some of your questions and just so the record is straight I am now 32, having been born in 1976 contrary to what other sources may tell us, which makes me year of the Dragon in Chinese astrology.
Never before have i received anything like the volume of kindness that i received this year. I have been inundated with messages, cards and gifts from so many of you and I am trying to get back to you one by one but it will take me a while so I really appreciate everyone's patience.
It's funny. Instead of Mom, Dad, Bro, Sis, Nan & Gramps etc... I now have 10,000 "thank you" letters to write!! Whoa LOL ;)

As you know I have now officially signed back with the CBS family for a new show opportunity. We are currently in development of a number of new ideas and this will keep us busy through till the end of the year.
I know this isn't much information but I'm under contract again and I'm afraid it's all I can give you right now.

Anyway, I just wanted to touch base with you all quickly on my way to work and say thank you for making yesterday great. It really was.

Warmest regards to you all

Alex O'loughlin x

Announcing an international branch of the Red Cross donation campaign pro Moonlight: ____________ Dear international Moonligh fan community, Over at Moonlightline en Español we Latinamerican and Spanish fans have been discussing a world wide campaign to raise Moonlight awareness. We decided to organize one day where fans from around the world could make a monetary donation (easier to do en mass than blood itself) to the Red Cross in Moonlight's name. The date we have set is the 28th of September, Moonlight's premiere anniversary. The donations go directly to each country's chapter of the Red Cross. The plan is to draw media attention to the widespread nature of our donations and of the support for Moonlight. We are organizing a way to get a global report of the total donation amount after that day. Please expect more specific info. I pledge to support this effort

Forum Discussion for Alex O'Loughlin/Moonlight Blood Drives

I will never look at the MOON the same way after this series.It's a shame it wasn't given more respect. The Whole cast, Trevor and the rest of the writer's and producers were definately shortchanged. Best Show ever. We will continue to donate, to save lives, and to honor the hardwork of those who started all this.

Alex is all heart!! I appreciate his crusade for the Red Cross. We need more humble actors like him. Moonlight deserves a second season!!!! Moonlight Fan Always:)

I'm getting really tired of the TV Money Men making decisions that do not support what their viewers want (make that intelligent, sophisticated, viewers with money to buy products). And it's all the networks! Most shows are either hopped around from one night to another, or not given enough time to take hold and find an audience, before they are cancelled. To add insult to injury, the show is cancelled and ends abruptly in mid-story line. The least they could do is tie up the story and give it some kind of conclusion, rather than keep us hanging....f-o-r-e-v-e-r! If a show is lucky enough to make it, nowadays, there is such a long break between short seasons, that you've forgotten some of the characters and story lines by the time it returns to the air!

So, now they've done it to us again.........one of the few shows that I actually look forward to seeing, is gone! I'm on the verge of giving up my satellite dish and TIVO, and going back to the library to renew my card! At least I can choose to read the really good books, and find out how the stories end!!

count me in!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moonlight is the show more seen in years, refreshing in their script and actors and seen by people of different ages, countries and cultures, both so that we joined by a cause in common, helping to mankind through the Red Cross, which another series does this, heard this CBS?

No me puedo creer que quiten la serie... Yo casi nunca veo la tele, es más la detesto. Como mucho suelo ver algún que otro programa inglés. Y para una serie que vale la pena [vale si hay más pero no las han cancelado aun] van y me la quitan! Espero que recapaciten y la sigan poniendo...aunque hay que tener narices... mira que comprar los derechos la sexta en una serie que se va a cancelar...

I already donated money to American Red Cross in honor of Alex/Moonlight.

keep this show

I only watch about 4 shows a week and Moonlight was the best one. Haven't looked forward to a show in a LONG time. The story and characters were great, Alex O'Loughlin is a fantastic actor, and I can't believe it's been taken off the air. Are you guys stoned? Because that has to be the only reason an idiotic move like that could have happened. Please let rational thought take over again, and PUT IT BACK ON! (P.S. When is Season 1 coming out on DVD, because I'm going through withdrawal...)

hey WAT STUPID IDIOT CANCELLED MOONLIGHT HUH....... well i sugest u put it back on nd as soon as possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! coz its the best vampire/crime/romance show that been on since Angel got it.... good now please put it back on asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mentioned that I already donated money to the Red Cross but I put my plea in that I really want Moonlight back. I have been watching television for quite some time and it is the best show I have ever watched on television. I still cannot believe that such a high quality show was cancelled. Bring it back, please.

I already donated money to American Red Cross in honor of Alex/Moonlight.

hi you should really bring moonlight back its like the only thing i watch on tv and i love shows and books about vampires so PLZ BRING MOONLIGHT BACK ON TV AND I BET EVERYONE WOULD BE HAPPY THANXS

I'm not a crazy vamp lover or anything ,I just liked the show, and think highly of people who can think of others and not just themselves.

I think that blood drives for moonlight are grate it's clever and giving just like the show.ALEX'S PART AS MICK, GAVE A GRATE SPIN ON VAMPS.HE HAS THE PERFECT LOOK THAT MADE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH VAMPS ALL OVER AGAIN.

Moonlight was the best show on tv,It had the best actors, a great story line,and you went and canceled it, I just do not know what you where thinking, I for one, stopped watching cbs,afther that, nothing compares, to ML,give us season 2, show us you have,some conection to the 8 million fans, to ML,cbs do something that makes sense for once.....Besides having, Alex O'loughlin,sign the contract with cbs,You have a, *VERY TALENTED ACTOR* puy him back to work...........HE IS GREAT;)

Interesting how they always take a good show and cancel it only to replace it with reality tv crap. Let the show stay on the air!

i think that moonlight is one of the greatest shows ever and i think that alex o'loughlin is a great actor and humanitarian for his part in helping the red cross.i am looking forward to season 2 of moonlight.

This show's too great you HAVE to keep it on the air!

He is way to hot to get rid of. Keep him on.

Bring moonlight back! It was really good and a lot of fun! I want to see more episodes! PLEASE!! It's my favorate show and I don't want to see it on sci Fi once every few weeks all day long! I want to see it on cbs new and better than ever!!!

I since CBS has canceled Moonlight we should boy-cott the entire network. All the other shows are going to suck anyway, Even CSI!

This show is by far my favorite show on television, please bring it back!

This is the first show in a long time that I would rearrange all my schedule for. Please bring Moonlight back... it gives us'30 somethings' something or should I say 'someone' to look forward to!!!

Please bring back moonlight!

I couldn't wait for Friday night to watch Moonlight and was looking forward to the new season. I am very disappointed it was cancelled. Please bring it back. It's a great show. Shame on you for taking it away from us.

This is a wonderful campaign to Save lives and Moonlight. Thanks for setting it up. I have just place a reminder in my Outlook Calender for Sept 28th. I will also make a gift donation for Alex's birthday. Not able yet to donate blood again until September.

I donated blood today for Alex O'Loughhlin birthday gift. Mick St. John might not age but Alex will be one year older on Sunday. I could not wait until September 28th. Save Moonlight by donating blood. VSRRR!

Saving lives, Saving Moonlight, please join us the on the day on September 28 in this lovely solidarity campaing of the Red Cross.

My Bio

My story Hepatitis C

A bit about me: I found out that I had "Non A Non B" virus in the mid 80's. No one really need knew anything about the Hepatitis C virus. I have a rare blood type, so I gave blood many times. Those days they didn't test blood for this deadly virus.

I don't know many people got the Hepatitis C virus from the blood I donated before the blood test became routine.

Both my ex husband and I had the strain (Genotype 1A) The most difficult strain to get rid of. The doctor's don't call it a cure, instead it is called a Sustained Viral response. Many people do relapse after the treatment.

I had Hepatitis C and my ex husband had the same strain(genotype) A few years ago his brother and his mother were all diagnosed with Hepatitis C. (Different strains) My ex mother-in-law ended up with liver cancer,which was most likely from the virus. She had surgery for liver cancer last year. So far so good. This was a family with four people diagnosed with this virus.

I still have post treatment side effects from the treatment. The treatment was so hard on me, I looked like a walking corpse, gray pallor. I know I would have died if I would have continued the treatment. I am disabled now with neurological and other side effects from the treatment.

That is my personal story of living with a deadly virus. I was disabled by the treatment. My treatment laster 8 months, but usually the doctor's recommend a one year treatment program. I still have joint pain, severe chronic fatique and other residual symptoms.

I was a High-Risk Ultrasound technologist for at least 25 before I began the treatment October 4th, 2003.

I hope we can work together to get a better "cure" rate and help people who have been recently diagnosed with this virus.
