HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

To all my family and friends, Happy Thanksgiving!

This is a time to give thanks and reflect on the blessings bestowed upon us all.

I am truly blessed to have wonderful people in my life. This past year has changed my life; I like to think for the better. Although, cancer is hard to hear and know that it is terminal, cancer can be overwhelming at times, it also has brought out more love and support than I could have imagined.

Today, Wed the 25th of November, the day before Thanksgiving, I contemplate all that I am thankful for in my life. I am very thankful to the doctors and nurses and the treatment that is available for me. This treatment has provided me with remission. Awesome!

Remission can be for a long time and I pray every day for all those fighting the battle of cancer.

I am extremely thankful to my husband, Don, my children, Meghann, Maureen, Michelle, Sean and Jonathan; they are my inspiration, love, support, and all are cherished beyond words.

Today, at treatment, I learned my CA level increased by 1, it is at 10. This is the first increase in 3 months. Nothing to be alarmed about, something to watch. All other indicators are good and normal. Thankful...

I am Thankful for each of you in my life, and the outpouring of love, support, kindness, and friendship each of you have provided to me and our family this year. I love you all!
Wishing everyone a peaceful and thoughtful gathering with friends and family this Thanksgiving.
With love,
Margie
