i have so many things to be grateful for. My middle son and dil invited me to their house for Christmas,, and to see Les Miserables with Russel Crowe. Sig other is away seeing his kids and 2 new grandsons, but will be back on the 26th and we will have turkey for son and dil on the 27th. Dd will have us over on the 28th ands we will go out of town for dinner theatre for the 29th, and to visit mother. Almost too much but I will enjoy it. I have been much quieter for Christmas for many years. I too am grateful for my oet- my 13 yrb old cat Toonuie who is my constant companion.

I am thankful that my family made it so far without hospitalizations, deaths, major illness or disease .
2nd thing:(am I allowed?) I am grateful for is that my daughter has graduated with her Masters in special education. She has worked in mental health for 14 years now and works as assistant director of Children's Services. So proud of her too.
I am thankful (3rd thing)= For all the threads and extremely special people moving the threads on to give us so many individual insights and care. Thanks from my heart.
Merry Christmas

I am grateful for my wonderful husband and great kids. I am so looking forward to our daughter's upcoming wedding and grateful for our wonderful future son-in-law. Lastly, after years of limping along, I am very grateful for my new knees. No one will be able to stop me in 2013!

Wow - what a great idea !
This is my first Christmas without my precious Mum, and I had cancelled it until I read this thread. It really made me think!
So - I am thankful that.............
My Mum is at peace - she struggled so badly with the death of her first born daughter to breast cancer in 2005 at this time of year, and never got over our loss.
I have a wonderful Border Collie dog, who is my companion and best friend. His (OTT) joy and enthusiasm for life has made me want to carry on, where I saw no reason to.
I have two amazing sisters, who love me - warts and all! - what more could I ask?
I am alive and reasonably healthy and I have a good job which enables me to support myself and Finn (sheepdog-in-training).
I am free (of my ex-husband) and the miseries of sad and very unhappy marriage.
Thank you and Merry Christmas to all - Tess x

I'm grateful for all my new found friends here at the Agincare.com forums. I appreciate all your sweet words and encouragements and prayers. I'm also thankful that my mom's night surges have finally ended for now and she sleeps peacefully almost 10 hours a night. And that is where I'm also very thankful for sleep!!! For which the last 4 months I have been deprived of. Praises and God Bless.
