I am grateful for my friends here on the forums. 
My life would be smaller and less rich without you all.
Thanks!

Ditto, Joyful! It's just wonderful to be able to talk to people who are going through the same things and have the same mentality for our healing journey- one that's unique to the MP. 
I'm also grateful that I've had less pain the past few days. I'm not sure what combination of factors brought about some relief, but I'll take it!

I am grateful that my man is a good person. He moved his parents into a safer home for old people unable to deal with stairs any longer. Despite their childish need to exert control, even if it was by being pains in the bums. He did the right thing. While he was being yelled at. While he was reliving his childhood. He did the right thing.
He's one of the White Hat brigade. One of the good guys.

I was fortunate to be home and able to watch MJ's memorial on TV today. It was moving, forgiving, easily one of the most touching tributes I have ever witnessed. Yes, there was entertainment--that's the world that MJ comes from--but it was much more. There was a coming together, a congregation of people there to honor his spirit-- his family, his friends,his fans.
What struck me as I was watching this was one of the songs that Michael had recorded called, "Heal the World" reminded me of the work that Trevor and others have sacrificed so much for, to see chronic disease healed . I hope in my lifetime, that I will see the MP, "Heal the World". For all of those who have entered this protocol to make a difference, not only for themselves but for others to come...what a day that will be!!!

HI DEB & ALL
This is Fred in WV. I remind others that I talk to about the Marshall Protocol that I hope what I am doing will help them. I tell my oldest grandkids (the ones that understand the MP meds and ect.) that some day they will realize what pawpaw has done for the world, my me doing the Marsahall Protocol. I always make sure that they all understand that Dr Marshall was the smart one to figure out what was happening to cause all the TH1 diseases.
Remember, we are all in this together and I am pulling for us.
Your friend in Sarcoidosis
Freddie

Yes, Freddie I totally agree with you. I know for myself, it has been easier to understand and comply with the science behind the MP because of the many who have gone before me.
It helps when my IP gets out of control, to take the advice of those more seasoned MP'ers, who have already learned from their journey. My daughter, who is a nurse, tells me all the time when I am dealing with IP, how different things would have been for me had I not found the MP. She sees patients day after day, who are in and out of the hospital, because the only thing they are being treated with are steroids and it is ruining their health. It helps me put things into perspective and be thankful!
MP...Healing the World...one person at a time!

This is not the point Deb was making, but if the press reports are right, Michael Jackson was a Th1 sufferer. He is reported to have had lupus. I find it curious that no mention has been made of how this serious disease might have contributed to his death.

Carol,
I'm glad you brought this up. Freddie and I have been PM'ing about this ever since MJ died so suddenly. When I think back to different news reports, it seemed he was very ill at different times. There were a few times he delayed court because of illness and was blamed for "faking" it. Yes, it will be very interesting to see what all comes back from his autopsy report. It would be no surprise to me to hear a connection to Th1.

My daughter and I are going to the photographers today, to book her 2010 wedding! She is my youngest, my baby...and our first to get married. We are thrilled from every angle for her...she has been with her fiance now for almost 10 years...they met in the 7th grade...and became serious in their Junior year of high school...they have weathered distance...both went to different colleges, and now they are getting married!!! He is a great guy...she is a great gal!
I am truly grateful today because of the MP, not only will I be there next year to celebrate with my husband and family, this wonderful event...but I will not be doing it from a wheelchair or in increments of what I can tolerate, due to fatigue and neuro symptoms. I will be there in a year from now, even better than I am today. I see my progress from a year ago and a year before that...and know that 2010 is going to be a wonderful year for a wedding!...
Trevor,

HI DEB
This is Fred in WV. Thank you so much for that post and all the great things that the Marshall Protocol has done to make all this possible for you.
I do not know what it is today but I feel so great myself becasue I have had some CHF and a bad flare up of my R thumb (gout or infection, have been told both at times since being on the MP). I have not let these things slow me down. I just keep going like a timex watch, I can take a lickin' and keep on a tickin'. Thanks again Deb for that post. And as always I wish to thank Dr Marshall and all his staff here for there great help to all here at the site getting our health back.
Remember, we are all in this together and I am pulling for us.
Your friend in Sarcoidosis
Freddie

Deb,
I am so delighted to hear your news and congratulations to your daughter on her forthcoming marriage.
How wonderful that you can partake and help to plan this wonderful event. How much more wonderful that you will be able to enjoy it all.
Take care, Lynn

It's so lovely to witness your joy Deb , and how wonderful for the whole family to look forward to this special event knowing you're well on the way to better health, and heading into brighter days more and more.
I'm feeling good because I passed another occupational health review (little do they know how often I've been running on fumes but have somehow just kept going..), and have had the last of my very much thinner hair (which has always been very fine but there was a lot more of it) cut really really short - best thing to do with MP hair!! Not so much 'flat hat' hair to worry about now! Less shampoo needed in the shower! Less drying time therefore less muscle fatigue with the hair dryer! So many pluses!
And looking to the future, my very nice next door neighbour has just offered me his old greenhouse! Despite coming from a green fingered background I have never had one, and it will be something great to look forward to beyond the light restricted period. It's given me a real lift - he won't take anything for it, but will be amply rewarded in produce once I get going!
Morag

Oh, a greenhouse, Morag!! Oh, lucky you!!!
It's been so cold here, my wee raised bed garden is struggling. Pole beans only up with two leaves per plant, four tomato blossoms on nine plants, lettuce and spinach only a 1/2 inch tall. Profoundly sad.
But with a greenhouse..... holy moly..... you'd be a Green Goddess!!

Hmmm... I'm a greenhouse person too, but there is no room for veggies in my GH, it is filled, well, over filled, with orchids. Give me a PM if you ever get tempted by the dark side. Growing orchids is one of the worst addictions known to man (and woman). Cynthia
PS. The orchids pictures here have not been updated in 3 or 4 years, and many have gone to the great GH in the sky, and even more have found new homes as I have had to edit my collection to allow for more desired orchids. At the bottom of the pictures are links, one of which shows my temporary GH.

Wow! Cynthia. That is the most incredible display of orchids I've ever seen (and yes I haven't gotten around much because of MCS and so have nothing to compare it to except my own imaginings of how much work and space and love that would require to have and care for so many).
I'm also grateful for all the wonderful news reported (from greenhouses to weddings to feeling better).
Claire
P.S. I will however grump that I keep being dumped from various threads. Am I the only person who randomly loses connections to threads they've been watching?

Well, all those plants are a lot of work, and I am happy to discover that they really will survive not being repotted every year. Hmm. Maybe they will even go 3 years between repotting. But I didn't put them in big enough pots, so I am forced into repotting many. I have a make shift repotting station in my kitchen for those that just can't wait.
Sheila-Fl has complained about not getting things, but I think it may have been her internet provider. holding things up.

I am grateful to be back here. *waves enthusiastically*
Grateful that Sarah Jane is alive and doing much better. She bled almost totally out of blood on July 17th from naproxin tearing a hole in her stomach right over an artery.
Grateful that my oldest daughter finally realised that her fella wasn't a good addition to her life and broke up with him.
Grateful that my family is solid and we all love each other.
Grateful that Sarah Jane did so well in the hospital with her MCS, she is now going out into the world again. I rub her tummy for good luck because we share the same bacteria and if she can get better.... so can I. Thus kicking the butt of any fears that magically I will never join the rest of you in being well. You know neuro IPs. *laughs*

HI JUANITA
This is Fred in WV. I am sorry to hear all the problems that are going on in your family. I am grateful for you that you posted this post to share with us here. I am grateful that I am here to share it with you.
I enjoy Sarah Jane's and your post here. I read all the post here. I am proud of you and Sarah Jane showing the doctors they do not know as much as they think they do. Yea! Yea! for the Dr Marshall and his Marshall Protocol. We can not get enough of it.
Keep up the great work, Juanita and I have been wondering what was wrong becasue you or Sarah have not posted for a while.
Remember, we are all in this together and I am pulling for us.
Your friend in Sarcoidosis
Freddie
