Good Question.
For me it was last Thanksgiving when I was right in the middle of my radiation treatments. I was able to have all of my family here at the house for the holiday and my co-workers surprised us with suppling Thanksgiving Dinner and I do mean everything you can imagine. No I couldn't eat, but being able to watch my wife relax a bit (she was at my side the whole way) and have the kids, close family and friends here was a real treat.
Don't think for a minute that the cards, flowers and gifts didn't mean anything, they do, but that will be a holiday I will not soon forget.
