I give thanks...

To all my community friends.

I understand that today starts the FND.hope annual awareness activities with some teleconference sessions involving experts from around the world.

I give thanks to FND.hope for their efforts.

I further understand they may be including some of the anonymous questions that were submitted by this community for delivery to the Emory conference on FND that took place March 3-4 of this year.

I give thanks to you all for preparing those questions and for allowing me to play delivery boy and take them to conference.

Mostly, I give thanks to you individually today.

You have enriched my life and given support to my family.

I can not figure out how to ever repay your goodness.

So, I just give thanks for you. A true blessing in my life.

I hope some answers are revealed this week. I hope some suffering is diminished and renewal is restored.

Here is to a good day. We keep trying together.

Rewards for your efforts will come.

Dan, we love you so much for all your true friendships, support, and heartfelt efforts. May I also say that you are one of the best writers I have ever read. I feel like I dance when I read your word of struggle and love

Your kindness peers into the soul and soothes a broken heart. I want the best for you and this community. Such effort to find truth will yield answers.

I have to rest now. The heart insists. Be good out there. Stay alive. This world needs you.

That's easy Dan. The best thing you can do to repay us is what we can all do. Keep supporting each other in whatever way we can. Keep sharing information, keep advocating for each other, keep caring about each other. We need you just as much as you need us in order to fight the good fight.

Bless you for everything you do.

Gentle hugs, Margaret. xxx

Margaret.

You make it OK. Thank you. Will update on daughter condition as I can. Back home now from doctor. Extensive labs underway. Closely watching immune function and breathing. Have emergency options in case goes wrong again. Vasculitis under investigation. Will keep trying Margaret. Will report back on this and other findings related to low BP as they develop.

Take care of yourself Margaret. Need you too.

Dan

[ukmsmi4 in reply to Hidden]

Please don't worry about us when you have other important things to deal with. Your priority is yourself and your family. (Sorry, didn't mean that to sound quite so bossy so I retyped it with a please in front!)

Hope things get better for you and your daughter.

Hugs, Margaret.xxx

Margaret.

You made me laugh. Struggling to help her contain the next wave of hive attacks. She is covered up again.

Looking to buy a local hospital now.

Keep going....

Thanks Margaret for you.
