Why I'm thankful for ch
Nov 25^th, 2008 at 8:32pm

1. I never have to cut onions again.
2. I always have a reason to leave family reunions.
3. For binding my husband and I together.
4. For strengthing my relationship with the Lord.
5. For giving me a reason to quit smoking.
6. For giving me a reason to never drink.
7. I never have to put gas in the car.
8. I always have an energy drink waiting just for me.
9. for a way to meet new people
10. for making me a stronger person

thought this would make a good thanksgiving tread.... I will try to add more later Roll Eyes

I love that list!

I'm gonna use that number 1 the next time someone asks me to go near onion... Wink

I agree on many things on the list; my relationship with God is much stronger now, and I trust myself and my own voice much more than I did before ch.

And I'm thankful for ch because it has brought a lot of wonderful people into my life right here!

I'm not thankful for it at all. But, I am thankful I have O2 and O2 works for me.

Thankful for late night TV, so I have something to do while I suck O2.
Thankful my CH is not as bad as it could be. I pray for those who are in worse shape than me and ask them to keep the faith and keep trying to find something that works.
Thankful there are so many treatment options.
Thankful for my Neuro who works so hard to help me.
Thankful for my wife who asks me every morning how my night was.
Thankful for all the wonderful people here that have helped my more than they know.
