I am thankful for my health! So often, we only think about our health when we're having problems, but what an amazing gift it is that most of us are {more or less} perfectly healthy almost all the time! When I was two years old, I was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor. It was removed, and I went through radiation treatments. As a parent myself, I cannot even begin to imagine the stress that my parents went through during that time. Thankfully, that was it--I never had any more issues. I grew up knowing what had happened, but not understanding the seriousness (I don't remember anything about it). When I grew up, I learned that I might have trouble conceiving because of the radiation treatments, and I prayed that I would be able to have a child. As it turns out, we had a perfectly healthy pregnancy and, in turn, a perfectly healthy baby boy! I am so thankful for that. I am thankful for my own healthy body, and for that of my husband and son. Our bodies are so amazing and strong--what a miracle each of us is!
