This is so lovely - thank you to all MIP family! My "brother from another mother" Jerry is probably still snoozing - it's about 4am his time right now.
You are all on my gratitude list for today and all days. I love that we have a place to come to and share what's going on in our lives, thoughts, moods, etc. I woke up later than usual (my first pleasant surprise) and am moving a bit slower than usual.....but it's not related to aging, I promise!
Many, many thanks to all - know that you've brightened my morning greatly! (((Hugs))) for all!

Mahalo Everyone and besides getting you all AND IAm in my life I find out by doing the math (actually my wife did it) I am one year younger. You all have no idea how much of a gift you are in my life being a child from within this disease I didn't get the early happiness of youth I get them now with an entirely different more loving family. I am amazed to know that HP doesn't forget us and our need for unconditional love and acceptance. Neither that or our need for others to love in return. Great gifts.
I hope to see all birthdays here not just recovery days so we can celebrate widely.

I'm game - would love to live in HI - I'll take any part of any island - not picky at all!
What's so funny - this is the 2nd thread where we are talking about a Jerry invasion - poor guy has no idea that we're planning to bop over to his part of the world, and knock on his door for fellowship!! Ha.ha.ha.ha.ha.
