      I am thankful for all of your blessings.
      I have a lot of blessings, too.
      First of all is my family. I would not be “me” without them.
      Next – is an expected new Grandbaby next year.
      Then, there are my friends. Both cyber & flesh – I have the best friends in the world.
      I would not have any of these things without Gods Grace.

      I am thankful for many things–especially that I am doing better in this journey and still am able to work and help others at work even though the ways have changed. I am thankful that I work with children and they inspire me always to look for joy in life, to live fully each day, and to take what comes and make the best of it. Working with children with cancer shows one each day the kindness of others, the strength of love, and the power of hope.

      I also would like to say thanks for these.
      The taste of pears.
      The smell of tea roses.
      The touch of people who care.
      The sound of Christmas music (early this year).
      The sight of a how a smile lights up the face of a child.

      WithHope.

      I am thankful for
      My loving wife without whom I would not be here today
      God for healing and letting me stay on this good earth a while longer
      Being able to walk again
      Being able to go to the bathroom by myself
      Being able to eat good food (especially on Thanksgiving 😉 )
      Being with my family & friends this Thanksgiving
      All I have spiritually, physically, and materially

      My Doctor gave me some good advice which I am sharing with you. When you are tempted to feel sorry for yourself remember when you were at your lowest. Like I say focus on what you HAVE not on what you don’t have.

      I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving or in the case our friends outside the US a great day.
