My full list would be long, fortunately.
Recently thankful for:
1) My loving wife, faithfully picking me up at work for radiation treatments, having lunch for me already in the car for the way back, and letting me nap on the way back to work. I was able to keep up a full work schedule the entire time, and she drove almost 100 miles every day to do it.
2) Radiation is done, with nearly zero immediate side effects !!!!!
3) Friends who took time off work, surprising me in the waiting room after my last radiation treatment. (I about fell over; what wonderful friends!)
4) HT is working with full effectiveness.
5) PSA is undetectable, <0.1! So, for now my PCa is quite hormone dependent!
6) Returning to "normal" life
7) Deeper relationships in so many ways.
8) Music has more impact than ever, lyrics touch me to my core (some of that's the Lupron talkin'!)
9) Really recognizing we all have an expiration date, and living each day to the full with that in mind.
10) Faith, family, friends. These are what really matter.
