As always, I’m very thankful we are all in good health. Well, both my children are healthy and B is almost in what they call the ‘cured ‘ phase from his allo for MDS. I think they place that at 5 years. In spite of going thru chemo again I am healthy in all other aspects. No anemia, fractures, etc. all common with Myeloma. The 16 mg of Dex is helping make more tolerable.

I am so grateful for all the outside stuff B gets done, processing wood, raking, fence building. I used to love raking but really can’t do that side motion any more. So what he does is amazing.

My daughter does all the gardening and I am thankful she loves plants and growing things. BTW, the squash came out really good but not a lot on each one so I scooped it out and put it in a bowl and will reheat later. . No one really likes it but me and her.

Our Thanksgiving is small. There’s only us four and my son’s friend. My brother always goes to his handicapped buddy’s and takes him out for dinner.

This is the second Thanksgiving for my sisters family with out her. I’m sure they miss her a lot. As they are all good Catholics ,the 5 children all had lots of kids so it’s a big gathering for them.

I’m thankful I can go to the store and buy food and it’s abundantly available.

I’m grateful the 2 nurses at infusion are efficient, kind and friendly. It makes a difference. Being an oncology nurse must be difficult.
