I just wanted to say hi to everyone and wish you all good health.

I've been gone for a while getting over surgery number 12..but my CTscans are looking good. Nothing new. Getting my strength back and thankful to be home this holiday season with the kids, not drinking my turkey for the first time in two and a half years...I'm pretty darn excited!! Hope everyone is doing well and surrounded by the ones they love.

    Yes, keep up the clear scans.

    Yes, keep up the clear scans.   My grandmother lived in purred food from age 90 to 101, the woman had so much strength to live in bed for so long and just on purred Veggies  has to say a lot for not having to digest food  

     

    Have ve a great Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    Congrats to you!! I know that

    Congrats to you!! I know that feeling of drinking your Thanksgiving .. probably one of the hardest things I have faced in this journey was not being part of the holiday meals.  Trying to be pleasant for those around me was exceptionally difficult .. but then again .. I am a foodie .. Cool

    It is nice to see you found your way back to the board and hope you continue to stop in!  

    Hope you have a wonderful time with your family and your dinner is perfect.  What's on the menu?
