Early Thanksgiving

No turkey. In case you were wondering.

Stopped by the toe doc again today for a checkup. All clear, btw. The doc told me about a surgery he had later in the day with a 44 year old patient who had survived 2 heart attacks, a failed kidney transplant, diabetes and was now in danger of losing a limb. This person spends 15 hours a week on dialysis.

Ug. All this after I turned in 1200M in the pool. First, I felt a little guilty. Then, thankful. Really thankful. I couldn't shake the thought of that situation all day.

Sometimes it's good to be a little thankful for a lot of our time.
