Happy Thanksgiving
I want to take a moment to say Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. I know some of you celebrate Thanksgiving on a different date than in the USA but I want to say thanks to everyone. I joined this board about 2 years ago and it has been more than 2 years since my diagnosis but I consider all of you very dear friends. So many of you helped me through my treatment and other ailments/side effects that came along the way. I am so grateful for each and every one of you. Everybody brings something good and special here. Being part of this group is the best thing that ever happened to me.
When we say our Thanksgiving prayer tomorrow, I will thank God for all of you.
All my best
