Pink Think: “Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.” – Oprah Winfrey

Enough of the wallow!

Thursday, we found out my daughter would have to have knee surgery which would involve a 6-month rehab. As we sat waiting for the doctor to come tell us more about the procedure, I noticed the exam room’s walls held photos of former patients.
A skier. A lacrosse player. A gymnast. A tennis player.
The photos were all signed by the former patients, expressing gratitude to the doctor for giving them a new lease in life.
I looked at my daughter sitting bravely awaiting her fate, hopeful for better days this doctor will give her. Someday, she’ll have her own picture on the wall, of her doing amazing things.
