Today I was on my way to the movies, and really noticed the beautiful green, lush grape vineyards. I was amazed just how beautiful they were against the blue sky.
I thought to myself how "grateful" I was to have my eyesight. It hit me hard....for some reason. I was just curious as to what others are grateful for each day.

Judith, Thank You and all of your support and Blessings. xo

Cat, Thank You!! The support from you and so many others helped me get through this and so much more. I love you all xo

My eye is completely clear, healthy and Doctor said "Perfect". I am on Cloud 9 and to say the least....."Grateful" Thank You to ALL of you for the support and kindness through this ordeal. After 18 months of laser zaps, hemorrhages, clots, surgery and blindness I WON the battle. :)Love to you all. xo

That's awesome!

Thank you Acidrock....Love it!!

and love to you too Robyn

I am grateful having returned healthy and happy from a fantastic class reunion ( this ages me :) , Amsterdam 1960 ...and I signed up with CDA's Team Diabetes today as a 8 km walker/runner ...the Marathon to be in AMSTERDAM , Oct. 2013 ...I will fund raise soon !!

What great news, Robyn. Perfect is a wonderful word. We don't hear it often enough when dealing with our less than perfect bodies. I am so glad for you. It seems that you suffered more than 18 months. I hope that you suffer no more with anything. Have a great weekend. Luv ya !!! Cat =^..^=

Today i'm grateful for my health. Not that i'm some exemplary type of female or diabetic. just grateful that i still live relatively complicated free. free to enjoy the weekend with my family. free to go to work and earn a living. free from pain.

i am really grateful that i didnt have diabetes as a kid, that my identity was pretty "set" when i got it. for having enjoyed 36 year of chocolate and pizza worry free.

I am grateful for feeling pretty healthy. I went back to work this week after being sick all summer. So happy to feel engaged and productive again and see all my friends. I am also looking forward to Thanksgiving tomorrow. It looks like we will have great weather for it too.
