I have a few blessings that I need to count today. The first and greatest blessing of my day is, I had a nice visit with my son this morning. He was clear eyed. I could understand more than half of what he said. He looked physically better. Mentally there are improvements too. I will take every improvement no matter how small and be grateful. I even received several hugs and an I love you. Nice start to my day!
I am thankful that I have a friend that cares enough about me that she went to visit my son with me this morning. She is having Thanksgiving at her house this afternoon too. She took almost 4 hours out of her day to ride with me. Not just so I would not be alone. She wants to see my son. I have been blessed to have her in my life almost 30 years. She helps me through the tough times and celebrates the happy times in my life.
I am thankful that many caring people have stepped up when I really needed a hug the last few months. Some with messages filled with friendship and prayers.
I am thankful that I am back in my hometown. It never stopped feeling like home to me.
Later today I will be going to my daughter's for dinner. She lives in the home my husband was raised in. I am thankful that today we will spend Thanksgiving there filled with her family. I am thankful she has created a beautiful home with her husband and children. I am thankful that hubby and I only have to drive a few short blocks to share in a great dinner with family.
You know I am grateful for my wonderful grandchildren. They continue to bring me so much love and joy. Hope your Thanksgiving is filled with many blessings too!

Also wanted to mention (you are probably already aware of this) the large number of people from countries other than the U.S. who visit your page. Your writing about Uncle is spreading awareness all over the globe!
