Adding the 'from' element worked. I tried adding a 'cc' element and the email was sent but it did not send it to the 'cc' address. For now I will just include the 'cc' address within the 'from' element.

You're missing the 'from' element in the message. But you shouldn't be
using drupal_mail_send directly. You should use drupal_mail[1] and
implement hook_mail[2] to add your subject and body to the message array.
