I can't stay but a minute.  Just wanted to tell all of you Happy
Thanksgiving.  I hope all of you will have a great day with friends and
loved ones.  Hope you eat LOTS of good food and then fall asleep for a
nap with your tummy full.  I'm sure all of us have LOTS to be thankful
for this year, both personally and in general. Sorry that I've been away
for so very long, but my health has been really bad and I've not been
able to do much other than lay in bed or on the living room couch for
almost 2 months now.

I might take time here to mention that I'm very grateful for all the
friends I've made here.  Also, I'd like to thank each of you who have
sent me love gifts, e-mails and snail mails.  All of the afore mentioned
things have been very helpful to me.  I covet all the cards and snail
mail for the support they give me.  In fact, mail time is about the
highlight of my days.  Someone has to go get my mail for me lately and I
sit here waiting for it to come.  For the days I get real mail from
friends instead of just bills and junk mail, well, those days are really
special for me.  This is the kind of support, including the e-mails some
of you send regularly, that keeps me going when it begins to feel like
I'm just to tired and worn out to fight any longer.  I've been fighting
now for over 10 years.  And the love gifts that helped me get my
Internet and cable TV back......... well, I don't think I have to tell
any of you how that made my days.  Looking at walls all day is not that
much fun !!!!!!! LOL

Gotta go as I can't sit here for long.  Though I will say that today is
the first day in about a month and a half that I've felt good.  I began
to think it was never going to happen !!!!!!!  But it did !!!  Those
prayers and God can really work miracles !!!!

Love all of you a bunch..........
