Title: What I keep forgetting to say is

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 :laugh:
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

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.

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.

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