HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I have so much to be thankful for but probably top of my list this year is the fact that I got a good report from my oncologist last week.  My CT scan was excellent - no sign of cancer. YAY!!!  And I'm done with chemo and feeling better all the time.  I have started my radiation treatments - 5 down, 20 more to go.  So far those are not making me feel bad - a little discomfort in my middle but nothing too bad...and I should be done by Christmas.  What a fabulous thing to celebrate!
My thankful list is long...for the many people who lifted me up in prayer; for my wonderful family who took such good care of me; for my amazing friends who supported and encouraged me, gave me gifts, made food, did jobs around my house that I couldn't do; for awesome nurses and doctors who were/are so caring and kind; for meds and health care professionals who have the ability to get rid of the cancer in me; and most of all to God for seeing me through this.
In this COLD weather, I'm also thankful for a warm house, warm clothes, electric blankets... and lets not forget the turkey, stuffing, pies, and other delicious food that I was able to enjoy yesterday.
I hope that I can remember to take time each day to think about my blessings and give thanks for them.
My sincere wish for everyone reading this is that you have a wonderful holiday season, that you are blessed with good health and are surrounded by love. 
Thanks for reading.  Love, Susan
