Feeling Very Thankful

Kind of a slow day at work so I thought I would post a little something that I've been wanting to share.

The past year our family and sometimes friends and extended family have been attending a brain tumor support group which I have shared in previous blogs. The last few we have attended have been very powerful and have truly reinforced how thankful I am that my dad is getting stronger and stronger each day and still has his awesome personality :) There has been multiple people in the last few meetings that have brought up the fact that they are scared of dying and even some that have already lost children, or loved ones to brain cancer.

Sometimes I'm kind of down or don't feel like going to the support group each month but each time I come out of there, it's like I'm filled with a totally positive vibe. Even though what everyone in the group is going through is super depressing, it is a place for them to just say what they want and relate to each other, and by the time the hour and a half is up the energy in the room is totally different. It is a pretty surreal experience. We are so thankful we have found this support group and I am reminded each month how fortunate and lucky we are that Bill is alive and well.

Here are a few other blogs of folks that are part of the support group if you are interested in following their journey's:
