Thanksgiving


Susan M

500 views

So here is what I am thankful for:

 

Jackie gave me the biggest one armed hug a person could ever get yesterday and I heard her say I love you

 

My mom is cooking dinner for ME this year.

 

Jackie's sisters: Patti, Nancy and Kathy - they have kept me sane and they give me strength.

 

My dog and cats to come home to.

 

A home to come home to - Jackie's wisdom allows us to keep it.

 

A secure job and income

 

For discovering my spiritual side - the hard way but at least I found it.

 

FOr my friends and neighbors who have helped us.

 

For getting the leaf vacuum and mower deck off the tractor and the bucket and blade on without major injury! And I only swore once - when the blade fell on my foot. You would have too.

 

For finding this website and the angels on it.

 

Jackie is alive and with me...............my best friend and soul mate.

Sue - yep, life after stroke, life after all the bumps in the road on this journey with our life partners can still be worthwhile. You are gathering the strength now for BOTH of you. Like me you will be caregiver, advocate, cheerleader and best friend. Amazing as it might seem you are joining the angel band of caregivers and your life will change because of that. A lot of your time will be spent doing what is necessary to turn life around for Jackie and give hope to family and friends.

 

Keep up the good work.

 

Sue.
