I am so thankful for this forum and wanted to express my thanks to the forum moderators and all the wonderful people who write in to help others from all over the world. It is such a blessing for all of us!!!!

 I am grateful for a wonderful husband, a job with health insurance in this economy and people I care about.  I am grateful for my good doctor and his nurse.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone out there.

That my Crohns is in remission, that I have the love of the most amazing man, my friends here on Healingwell, and that at least I am home with no plans after developing this stupid cold and the time off to recover!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!

I am thankful most for my family, my boyfriend, my good friends. They always support me and cheer me up when I'm feeling unwell! I'm also thankful that I don't have to worry about insurance, being a student. I'm looking forward to being done exams and spending time with my family for the holidays :)

I am so thankful for my husband and family they are the ones who keep me going. I am thankful for my pets, oh how I love them, & for my job that I love. Although it is Thanksgiving and I will not be eating because of a flare, I am still thankful that this is the disease I have because I know it could be alot worse... Oh and I am thankful my PG is in remission !!

Too many things to list but for here I will say that I am thankful to finally be connected with support groups and this forum. By hearing other people's situations I finally understand my own symptoms better. I am able to forgive myself for being "weak" and realize that I am not nuts for being so tired or afraid to travel etc. Not to mention figuring out what collateral damage I have based on what has happened to other Crohn's folks, you know like realizing that tofu hurts me based upon the location and the character of the pain......

Best of all I can share my experience to both counsel and console others.

Have a Beautiful day all

Well, I'm not dead (yet). Could always be worse.
