Very grateful and excited that my sense of taste seems to be returning, although my nurses didn’t think it would.

Also excited that the top of my head is getting a little fuzzy.  New hair is appearing! Another thing the nurses didn’t think would happen.  Hooray!

Remembering that every challenge carries a gift for me to discover.

Kari was in the hospital this week, but is back on the road to good health.  I’m very grateful for that!

Nice to have Kari with us, at our home. for a few days while she recuperated.

Thankful for Kylia’s willingness to drive me wherever I need to go.

So wonderful to receive a surprise phone call from my nephew, Mark, in Florida.  No matter what is going on in Mark’s life, he always has time for his family.

Grateful for my brother, Gary and his son, Gary Michael.  They can always make me laugh.

I love the phone calls from my sister, Faun.   We always have a lot to talk about, and plenty of laughs.

So glad that I received the gift of humor from my family.  It makes challenges bearable, brightens my mood, and enlivens every conversation and every gathering.
