" There are many things I am thankful for. The following is some of them: writing, friends, being disabled, thinking positively, the various disabilities I have, my broken right leg, that fact I did not lose my right leg, this site, working on my family tree, my family. This is all I can think about now. When I sit and think I can come up with more.

" The wet wipes are a real "life Saver" for me too-especially when I am out and about or travel.
Probiotics and Canasa suppositories are also daily meds that i can usually count on to help the IBS-C. "

" I'm thankful for wet wipes and I am VERY thankful to be alive. I am learning to see the glass half full and my thinking has really evolved to make me a happy contented woman. I am so thankful for that. And I am thankful for my faith and my friends and family :) "
