GREATEST Gift

I can't even put into words how very blessed I feel.  I often hate to use the word blessed, as often people use it to describe something their God has given them.  I'm sure my very intelligent son Max who seems to be a master at vocabulary would be able to describe it differently.  For me, since I don't believe in a specific higher power will use the dictionary description.

4.  blissfully happy or contented.

With this, I have to say as a family we have met the most incredibly supportive, loving and unbelievable people we have ever encountered.  This journey, I knew would create a special bond with people that don't conform to most of society's norms, but what we received is really the deepest, truest love we have ever been subject to.  

With that, tonight my son received a countdown chain.  Not discounting the group of guys/gals that came together to do one for his T countdown day.  I'm so completely touched, that any group of people that would take time out of their VERY busy lives.  Believe me I've been in awe to how hard these folks work to just survive in this thing we call life.  Some have been with us the whole journey, some have just met us along the way, and some not even directly related to our new "circle of friends".  They banded together to make a chain, and a very amazingly constructed surprise party, for Max and his countdown to surgery day.  I do have to send a special thank you to a super special QF who truly has deserved her Ally of the year award!!
