thankful for the small things
 
Yesterday was my first day in weeks where my headache subsided on its own... Saturday I was experiencing my worst bout of headaches in many months, so to go from the worst, to very low headache just feels like such a wonderful blessing!

So I'm curious... what are you thankful for today? It could be big, or small... I just want to focus on the positives today.

Made it through my second 5 hour day in work. Ear pain, eye pain and headache all came back during it, but I made it through it and am home and feel ok.

So happy for you! Love this positive post too. I am happy to have my husband here with us. And I know our 8 month old son it too.

Took a short walk
 
I've been taking short walks. We live in the country, but not too far from a highway. Anyhow, had a nice 8 minute walk and heard birds out and around, and it was just before sunrise so I didn't wear my sunglasses. Lovely to hear the birds and spring coming back.

Good post! Despite feeling awful today :(, I am thankful for my children, my spouse, the country I live in, my slow progress over the past six months, and thankful that I still have the ability to laugh.

Today, I had physio.. and although I feel strange, I know that this therapist is a good fit, and that this will be a good addition to my treatment lineup! SOOOO thankful!

Thankful
 
I was able to "read" the paper today and track well, concentrate, and be able to focus on different topics. I haven't done that much in the last six months. Overall I'm not feeling well tonight, so it's good to try to focus on gratitude.

thankful
 
I'm thankful that my husband has so much patience and understanding about this illness. I wonder if I would be as patient. I've been low because my symptoms have returned with a vengeance and he has done a marvelous job of affirming my emotions but cheering me up at the same time. I'm thankful this illness isn't fatal and I'm thankful for all the helpful posts on this website.

Thankful
 
I am thankful for the friends that have come in to my life recently. I needed them so badly and it has helped me so much. I am thankful for my family. I am thankful that I have a roof over my head and clean water and good food to eat. I am thankful for all of you guys also.
Much love to all of you,

Huge
 
This is a very hard one for me.It is hard because I am very thankful for SO MANY HUGE things. I am thankful for being a fighter, getting this diagnosis after I went threw war, all my family threw thick and thin, all my speciality M.D.s, my ability to survive this condition, I am thankful for being able to do physical activities, I am thankful for getting my meds lowered today, and I am soooo thankful that today I achieved a self goal. I do not really know what small is anymore.
