Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
This is the first Thanksgiving where I have felt truly thankful for
something. This time last year, Alex was recovering from his
esophagus surgery, still in the hospital, without any prospects of
leaving for Christmas. We were lucky and did end up getting the
Christmas at home experience, but on Thanksgiving, we were much less
hopeful, and very down. We weren't able to see family because we
couldn't bear to leave Alex alone on a holiday, and it was not a very
good day overall.
But this year, we have so much to be happy for. Alex is home,
healthy, and happy. That's all we could have hoped for and
more. Please keep those in mind who have not been as fortunate,
and have a great weekend!
