It makes you realize that the stupid trivial things we all ***** about each and every day are really not so bad. It makes you appreciate your family and friends more. It makes you cry. It makes you laugh. It makes you try harder. It makes working seem not so bad. It makes holidays mean so much more. It makes you appreciate the smell and burning eyes from the exhaust of sprint car, I can go on and on.

While I admit... It sucks that I have to deal with this but as I've stated above... it has given me a greater appreciation for the simple things others take for granted.

Bring it on.:wink
Bill, I am sorry to hear that your cancer has returned, you remain in my thoughts and prayers for a full recovery. Positive attitude is one of the keys to beating this disease, an you sure have that kind of an attitude.

Cancer in my family has also taught me a greater appreciation for life and to cherish your family and the friendships you have.

Hope you have a great holiday season!
