Happy thanks giving everyone. Here are a couple of jokes for you to have a giggle giggle. Then I will share with you what I am thankful for - including some CT Scan results.
* If you think Octoberfest can't fix the economy, it's because you have not drunk enough beer.
* A man buys a parrot, only to have it constantly insult him. He tries
everything to make the parrot stop, but nothing works. Frustrated, the
man puts the parrot in the freezer. After a few minutes the insults
stop. The man thinks he might have killed the parrot, so he opens the
freezer and takes the parrot out. The parrot is shivering. It stammers,
“S-s-sorry for being r-r-rude. Please f-f-forgive me.” Then, after a
moment, the parrot softly asks, “W-w-what exactly d-d-did the turkey
do?” Wow what an action packed weekend and so much to be thankful for. To start with I am thankful for everyday, especially since I am able to spend them with my beautiful wife Teresa. She makes me smile, brightens my world and helps keep us in check with not sweating the small things. This perspective helps to lead a much happier life and stress less especially when hosting 15 people for a turkey dinner. There are many small things to go wrong, though they are small in comparison to spending the day with family. We had a great time on Sunday and a wonderful meal. Mom`s desert was excellent and having grandma with us was wonderful. I am thankful that there is family and friends we can spend these days with and be alone.
I am also thankful for the work our doctors and clinical trial patients who have done the research to develop the medications we have. Without them the results from treatments may not be what they have been. The latest CT Scan results show great progress. The spot in the lung seems to have cleared up, there are 2 spots in the liver which have been identified, all other organs look good. Lymph nodes appear to be ok and all other areas stable. More treatments to follow.
There is so much to be thankful for it is hard to put out there in 1 blog post or remember everything in 1 day. So I find myself reflecting often all year round and reminding myself what is important, and what to be thankful for.
Keep on Smilin everyone - you will have a brighter day by doing so.
