I am thankful for my incredible husband who is the most supportive, beautiful person I could ever have dreamed of. Throughout every attack he makes me tea, hot water bottles, and best of all, strokes my hair as I sob, telling me how brave I am and how much he loves me. I could never have wished for anything more. I am thankful for my parents and parents in law...who are very different from eachother, but complement perfectly. I feel so lucky to have four parents. I am thankful for my bestest friends, who I watch moving up in the world, having babies, and it fills me heart with joy. I am thankful to myself. For having a positive personality, no matter what, it prevails, and for having an outlook that keeps my eyes at the sky...I am also thankful for my self discipline and focus, which makes ibs deprivation much easier to handle. I am sooo thankful to peppermint tea, ginger root, chamomile, hot water bottles, bubble baths, baby wipes, posh toilets, motilium, toast, oatmeal, rice and applesauce. I am so thankful for ok days between bad days of ibs. I am so thankful for being perfectly healthy apart from the ibs!! I am so thankful for this website. After so many years of feeling alone, isolated and self consious I have learnt pride and assertiveness and feel like there is a place where people understand. Which is the only thing that helps emotionally, mid attack. And for that I thank Heather so much. I am thankful to New York City for accepting me as one of its residents 6 days ago!!! I love it here! I am thankful for my sense of humour which makes life even more beautiful!
