I am blessed. Even with this monster of an illness, I am blessed for:

1. My husband-who loves me unconditionally and takes care of me, accepts me, buys me flowers for no reason, surprises me with chocolate(my weakness), cooks, cleans, takes care of the yard, and always kisses me good night and good morning.

2. My kids- they are amazingly strong, beautiful, grateful, and happy. They've experienced a lot in their short lives, and have came through unscathed.

3. This group of people- y'all have been great for me to consult during my surgery and recovery.

4. My strength. Some people call it stubborn. I call it determination. I'm going to fight until I have nothing left. I never want to feel like I didn't do everything I could. :-) in almost everything I do.

That's just a few. I'll try and do this every day!
