What I keep forgetting to say is

[Cindy]

I was with my wife earlier and we were getting a new wheelchair for her. As ever it cost a lot more than we were lead to expect, a bit like buying a car, "Oh you want seats, engine and steering wheel - they are all extras." 

Well the cushioned seat, leg supports, brakes and safety belt were all extras!

At the end of it she apologised for me buying it and I was taken aback. Why should you apologise? Well you could have used that money for your surgery, was her reply.

I cried - again - damn hormones

I told her it didn't matter a damn and that she was far more important than any surgery for me.

So we both cried. Must be Hay fever.

She asked me how I kept going.

I told her the truth that I have lots of friends at Susan's who keep me going when I feel bad.

What I keep forgetting to say is: Thank You

You keep me going.

Thank You - All of you are very special lovely people.

Now we can all have a cry

Must be Hay fever.

I have used this one a million times!

[Beth Andrea]

Thank you, Cindy. I know you've helped me when I needed it, and that you help others here, too. You're a sweetheart, you and your wife are very lucky to have each other!

*hugs*

Damn, now I'm suffering from 'hay fever'..

This story demonstrates the Cindy I know and love, someone who has been there for me when I needed her, a friend.

Does anyone have any Benadryl?

Thank you, Cindy, for being an amazing woman who is an inspiration to us all.

I found the Benadryl!! It doesn't seem to be working though! Love ya Cindy!!

She asked me how I kept going.

I'm glad we help. But I also think it's your character that keeps you going. And from what I've seen you have a lot of it.

I don't cry much, even with completely female endocrines, but somehow the computer monitor is becoming kind of blury.

What a lovely moment hugs

Ditto!

[Rachel]

Hugs, I look to you as my big sister.

[Pia Bianca]

Cindy... all is said. You're a special person. You're supportive to so many of us, we all owe you a big thank you.

But one thing you wrote is even more special:

Thank You - All of you are very special lovely people.

Yeah. Exactly.

You're amazing Cindy. That post in itself is a perfect example of that. You always put others first. Thank you.

Now I need some Kleenex!
