Happiness and Gratitude

I've been really sick for a few months now. Three days ago, after more meds and yet another doctor's visit, I am FINALLY feeling better. I lost 27 pounds total, and I am now ravenously hungry - for food and for life.

There's nothing that quite compares to the gratitude one can feel for good health after a long illness. I can stand and not be dizzy. I can eat and keep it down. My head isn't constantly throbbing. I can go to work and stay for my whole shift. I can be counted on again. Lawd heppit, I'm BACK!
