Letters sent by Princess Diana to Aids victim revealed | Daily Mail Online

QuoteLetters sent by Princess Diana to the friend of an AIDS victim who she gave ?580 to have been made public.

Correspondence between Princess Diana and a friend of Vincent Hickey show the kind-hearted spirit of the 'People's Princess' to those less fortunate than herself.

In July 1996, Margaret Bendon got in touch with Diana on behalf of Mr Hickey, who had AIDS and bowel cancer, to ask for money for a visit to Loudres, France.

Diana's personal assistant wrote back to Ms Bendon, saying the Princess would consider the request.

Then six days later, a second letter was sent by the Princess with an enclosed cheque.

Great gesture by Diana. Showed that she backed up the gestures with real tangible contributions. This is her true legacy which should be celebrated.

This is what defined Diana for those who ridiculed her and put down her work as pure PR this is just another example and there have been many, that Diana did more behind the scenes with time and her own money.

This is who Diana truly was even if the revisionist history people try to pretend otherwise.
