I am thankful. Please share.
My brother's malignant brain tumor has shrunk.

My wife still loves me after 30 years, and it hasn't been easy.

I still have a job that pays shitty wages, but it's a job.

2. I am thankful.
Both my daughters were able to be with us this week.

My wife and I are still together after 34 years. It hasn't always been easy with us, either. I doubt most people married for decades would say their marriages had always been easy. I'm especially thankful for the deeper relationship that has been formed by working through those times.

We have faced pretty heavy economic challenges in the past, but have been fortunate to have escaped most of the personal economic impacts which have devastated so many in recent years.

7. That I've had the safety and support from my parents and their home for the last five years while
being sick and struggling to get healthy again.

Also thankful for optimism.

Finally, very thankful for all I've learned from the amazing collection of brilliant and intriguing minds on the DU.
