2021 has been another challenging year; however, things are looking more optimistic than last. As we approach our second Thanksgiving in the middle of a pandemic, now is a good time to reflect on what we are thankful for and express gratitude for what we have. As we know, Thanksgiving is truly a time of thanks and despite the circumstances, there is always something to be grateful for. We asked our fans to reflect on this past year — family, friends, health and jobs topped the list of heartfelt responses.
Reasons to be thankful from our fans:
- Jay: I’ve had a few years back of health concerns that caused me many set backs starting with psoriatic arthritis. I was on the frequent flyer program at my local hospital and TCU. I’m doing much better thankful to a trip to Mayo clinic in Rochester. Thankful for my family for helping me through it all.
- ED: I am thankful for everyday I have with my dad since he was diagnosed with Esophagus cancer.
- Jackie: My family, my job and to be able to provide for myself as not everyone can and has been able to throughout the pandemic.
- Sara: For my health, family, and everyday I wake up.
- Mike: My wife and I tried to have children and lost one so we weren’t sure we were ever going to be parents and than 4 years ago we had a son. We were very happy with that and than over a year ago my wife got pregnant and we had a little girl-so I am thankful for my family and that I have 2 jobs to help pay all the bills-so much to be thankful for.
- Angela: Grateful for the chance and opportunity to hug kiss nurture and be with my two little girls every day.
- Shauna: Friends, family and food. 💜
- Jennifer: My daughter who is my sunshine in life.
