Although I am feeling sorry for myself, I have not forgotten the loved ones who are suffering in Colorado with the recent shootings.My thoughts and prayers go out to allSee More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I read the book and love it! I have always given, mostly out of guilt but now I want to give from my heart with no thought other than to do from the goodness of me
What I'd most like to receive:
What I send out, I wish for peace, love and understanding
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
The book
About me:
Hi, I am a single woman who has struggled all my life with illness, too numerous to mention but I do have Lupus and Fibromyalgia just to begin with.
I have always done for others and never for myself and now it is catching up with me. I have not let my struggles with my health defeat me but some days are harder than others. My solution most times is a good sense of humor and trying everything my body allows. My boyfriend always says "things could be worse" and he is right. I have lots to be grateful for and so begins my journey
Do you agree to read and follow the 29Gifts Code of Conduct once you join our site?
Yes

Day 4 continued

Posted on July 26, 2012 at 7:16pm 2 Comments

My gift for today was allowing an old friend a phone conversation and visit. We live in the same building but we haven't spoken in a long while. It's awkward because he cares for me more than a friend and I already have a steady boyfriend of four years. I wish him well and a very happy birthday tomorrow

Day 4

Posted on July 26, 2012 at 4:58am 2 Comments

I am grateful for sites like this one, new friends and understanding

Day 3 continued

Posted on July 25, 2012 at 5:36pm 3 Comments

Today we had the graveside service for my boyfriend's mama named Emma who passed away peacefully on June 7th.

My gift today was supporting my boyfriend and his family by attending this service even though I was not feeling well myself

Day 3

Posted on July 25, 2012 at 4:16am 2 Comments

I am grateful for free health care in Canada, good doctors and caring nurses

Today I am having another cystoscopy (scope to look inside my bladder) to see how my bladder is looking inside. I have a bladder disease called "Interstitial Cystitis" which is a painful inflammatory disease of the bladder. There is no cure, just treatments to help with the inflammation. Bottoms up!

Glad to see you joined the Canadian group.  When I joined there wasn't much activity happening.  I have been busy with summer stuff and grandchildren and haven't been following what has been going on with 29 giftsas much as I should.  I was so excited to see someone from the Maritimes.  I live on PEI so we are neighbors. I also was so inspired by the book and the courage of those with illness.  I am so lucky to have good health and I am so thankful everyday.  Seeing your post is my gift for today.
