I love my birthday! I always have... my family, I'm sure, always feels

the pressure to make it a great day for me. Next Monday I celebrate 74! How can that be?!

We all need to celebrate each and every day as a gift. Every day isn't always our best by any means. It may be a day we don't feel well, a day we've experienced sadness or disappointment, or just not a 'good' day mood wise. ( I can surely relate to that ) So much sadness and suffering in the world that we have to take each day and make the most of it. Our attitude can make all the difference.

Attitude can change the most challenging day to one we can muster up all the grace we can and see it thru to the end. Don't sell yourselves short and how much we can rise to the occasion and maybe even soar!!! There are so many here in this group that can give you that word of encouragement or kindness that can make all the difference. I know all of you are here for each other. We have to be. PBC is scary!!! I have dealt with this disease, in some form or another, for over 30 years. No one should ever feel alone. I can guarantee someone will be there to listen anytime you need an ear.

Newly diagnosed folks never give up! Someone is always here to support you. Celebrate your life in every way - every day.
