I am thankful for this thread! It's always important for me to remember to have a sense of gratitude and thanks rather than dwell on things that are troubling to me.

First and foremost, I’m thankful to be alive. When I was first admitted to the hospital after my accident, that wasn’t considered the most likely outcome. A special shout out of thanks to neurosurgeon Steve Chang MD, who performed the lifesaving craniotomy the night of my accident.

I’m grateful for my wife, who was (and is) a rock of support. She was my caregiver when I couldn’t care for myself. The list of family, friends and co-workers who shared love and prayer is too long to list but you know who you are and I am grateful to you all. I’m thankful for my little therapy pug Keona.

Best to you all. I'm thankful for all of you who continue to share your experience, strength and hope.
