My family and friends who have really stepped up to the plate while I've been sick. In fact it makes me THANKFUL for this time of illness/pain because it has been a chance for me to REALLY SEE/HEAR/KNOW how loved I am... I used to think I was only valuable for the good things I do. I see that the people in my life who really matter, LOVE ME just for me, even if I can't "do" anything or be useful in any way. Even my children, when they crawl up beside me and rub my tummy and tell me I'm beautiful, for no reason. All this has been wonderful and really solidified these relationships, esp with my husband... he sang me a song when he asked me to marry him called, "I Will Be Here"... and BOY, he HAS been here and is STILL here... okay, this has made me cry... I'm done!!!
