I really am a little late in posting, but I have a long long list to be Thankful for and not sure where to begin, but here is a start:

1st and foremost, my husband who is fighting a terrible fight of brain cancer and still here with us to celebrate.
2nd my folks who have been amazing helping with all the transportation they can handle for medical appointments for my honey so I can stay at the office as long as possible during the day.  There are weeks when we are litterally running...
3rd for St. Matthew Church where I go to mass every week, without their help with transportation I don't know where I would have gone for all the daily raidation trips for 6 weeks and continued help there.
4th for my cousins that live around the corner from us, they are always there, and ready to help whenever I need it and did all of our Fall leaves cleaning this year, and it was a ton!
5th and certainly not the least and I'm sure I'm forgetting something, for our cousins who have been helpful in so many ways to helping me run my 4 acre house while my honey is down and can't, and all the little chores they do from sitting with me thru two brain surgeries and helping out with his mother that lives with us while I'm unavailalbe.
6th for the Wilmot Center at Strong Memorial Hospital-without them, where would we be...
7th-for the best coworkers a husband could ask for driving him back and forth to work for months til he could drive for at least two months this year. they are truly amazing, his boss included in there...
8th-and yes I am going to publicly say this for Dales mother for calling me home to check on him when he had his blood clots at the end of October, without that call and the timing, we were lucky!
9th for a very understanding bossie that lets me take hubby to numerous appointments...

I'm so thankful my husband is still here, he has his problems to work on, and it's a difficult thing to treat, but, we're still together and able to celebrate 17 years of marriage this year.  For that I am extremely thankful...
