Ed,

It is so great that you started this thread so that we have a chance express our feelings and to say thanks to those that make this forum such a great place for support and friendship.

This is my third Thanksgiving since my diagnosis and like everyone else, I wondered if I would ever get to celebrate this great holiday again. Today I spent the day with my 2 children, 4 grandkids and extended family. It truly is a blessing to be able to do that and we so often just take these things for granted.

I hope that everyone had a good holiday and thanks to all for being here and sharing your love, knowledge and caring with everyone.

Jerry
