Thanksgiving, as in Giving Thanks. What I Had for Dinner

Many of you have followed my journey through serious health problems over the past year/s, and many of you have prayed for and supported me in those days. I want to thank you and for you to join me in thanking God for the miracle that has happened this year.

The shortest way I can say this is to tell you what I had for dinner last night. All but the wine, I have not had at *all* in 1.5 - 2 years, and when I *did*, I paid for it in eczema and even super-eczema reactions. My hair was gone; I wore a hat for 4.5 years...and in latter days, I couldn't even do that--I had to wear babushkas because they were softer...and for other reasons.

So here is what I had for dinner last night--and I had only a *tiny* breakout. If my skin had been in the past 15 years like it is today with the tiny breakout, I would have been thinking there was a miracle--it was unheard of that it would *ever* be this *good*.

So here is what I had for dinner last night.
Bread.
Butter.
An apple.
Stilton cheese.
New harvest reisling (I could have that before...)

It was *heaven*.
Just heaven.

And I have no hat on and my hair is growing in ever thicker. It is nothing short of a miracle and for this I am thankful to God, to my family who have suffered with me, to those who have prayed and helped, to my friend who sent me to this allergist for this treatment and for the allergist and all in his office. God bless you richly, every one!
