Me

First I should give an update...well not much has changed. Still waiting. Jared's MELD score hasn't changed and he still doesn't feel well most of the time. I wish I had some progress to share but unfortunately I don't.

On another note, I just wanted to ramble for a moment.

As I was thinking about the list I made of things I wanted to get done today it crossed my mind that I should be grateful for my health. Now I am not the most healthy person, I eat my fair share of junk food and exercise is sporadic if even existent at all. I have my aches and pains (who doesn't) but I think I am generally in good health. I know many people who suffer from migraines and other things that hinder their daily activities, and while I can't do things like run a marathon or play sports, thanks to my knees, I can go about my days and accomplish many things without worrying about how I am going to feel that day. I wish those who had medical problems would be able to get well and feel well on a daily basis. Especially Jared who is waiting for his liver transplant and doesn't feel well most of the time, but still goes to work each day and comes home to our family chaos :) I am grateful for all he does for our family and I hope he gets his transplant soon. And in the meantime I am grateful for my health and that, besides my scattered brain, I can be here for my family every day.
