A Grateful Day

Two years ago I was given two to three years to live. That prognosis shortened as my diagnosis progressed... and I've exceeded my prognoses greatly. For time I am grateful. 
We've had an exceptionally exciting few weeks. Here are some things/people I am exceptionally thankful for:
- Former landlords and The Home Depot for hosting an amazing fundraiser
- My sister for arranging meals for us
- Close friends who know when to come over and how to encourage me
- Worshipping & having communion together
- Getting outside and sitting in the sunshine on a beautiful day
- The Home Depot's flexibility and generosity in Xhevat's scheduling
- Fresh fruit & veggies, especially watermelon this week
- For a friend who went three times to pick up a commode on wheels
- For a shower instead of a bed bath
- Xhevat, my faithful husband, who has done everything at least once for me. I can't imagine getting through especially these last two years without him

Today is a grateful day.
