Do you ever watch this and just think, regardless of how crap the day may have been, I'm one lucky lucky bugger??
I'm almost healthy.. have the best friends and family and someone who truly lights my day up..
What are you grateful for right now? |

I ended up in hospital earlier, amongst other things baby wasn’t moving. As soon as the midwife touched my belly with sonogram he kicked her. And he’s been moving ever since
So grateful |

I spent some time in hospital and in 6 weeks I had just 2 days where I didn't have a visitor.
It made me appreciate my health and how vulnerable I am but also that I have such good people around me and for that I'm truly grateful, so many people have no one. |

"Always watch it.
Anyone can end up there at any time.
Enjoy life while you can.
I'm grateful for my health, family, a good over our heads and the freedom to laugh."
It's amazing isn't it! Heartbreaking to watch sometimes but really brings home what matters! |

I love dogs so much! And she is especially wonderful! She gives proper cuddles and has become my shadow whenever I'm here. |

Great post OP.
Remind us to appreciate things that we have now and appreciate others who make our lives better.
I am grateful of my current independence in all aspects of life. I dread the day that I might have to depend on others  |

I’m grateful that you’ve found someone who truly lights your day up too my lovely!
You’re not a million miles from me! The silly bugger might make it 40 mins further down the road one of these days for the coffee he keeps promising!  |

You toughen up. First 6 months I wasn't sure, I changed jobs as U got offer a different role elsewhere (carried on working as bank staff for NHS) but returned to this one and stayed since. I get the appreciation from patients. There are some assholes but majority are nice and grateful for all the help. |

I'm so squirmish.. wouldn't have the patience to do what you do. I was a jibbering wreck last time I was in hospital.. the care from the staff was just a bit overwhelming! |

I'm not clinical but work with different patients from all walks of life. Hats off to our nurses and doctors. |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I don't watch it but have always been grateful for the NHS, the staff who have been there to save me me, several times and, most of all, my wonderful GP. He called me on Christmas Eve, just before leaving for home, to make sure I had my test results and to make the necessary referrals. The appointment letters came in before New Year's Eve.
I'm most grateful for my long-suffering family. They love me, despite me being me. We laugh a lot.
Right now, I'm watching First Dates and grateful I haven't me the rude prat just on. That poor woman, watching this after her date.

Ha ha snap.. she was beautiful! I hid behind a cushion..
I love that programme.. spend the whole hour on the edge of tears hoping nobody dies.
Eternally grateful for the NHS and the lengths they go to... and still do for other family members. Defo makes me stop and think! |
