Light

Today's Beautiful Thing is the lightness I feel in my chest after the last 4 stressful days. Even though I missed two days of work and must get month-end work completed by Friday, I feel no stress. My sister-in-law has been given a new lease on life. Nothing is more important than that!

Miracles Do Happen!

Today's Beautiful Thing is witnessing a miracle. The doctors said my sister-in-law's surgery could have taken up to 30 hours over the course of 2 days. Instead, they completed the surgery in 3.5 hours without a hitch! Bonus Beautiful Thing: The doc said that the tumor they removed would have killed her if it hadn't come out when it did. There was no more room for it to grow. It was truly divine intervention that it was finally discovered after growing in her head for (the doctors estimate of) 20 years!

Relief

Today's Beautiful Thing the relief of knowing my sister-in-law is doing fine after a medical procedure. Bonus Beautiful Thing: the procedure will improve the chances for a successful surgery tomorrow.

TEAM EDRA!!!!

Today's Beautiful Thing is family. My sister-in-law was hospitalized this evening. Seeing her surrounded by family (including her in-laws, who had a much longer drive than we did) was a Beautiful thing indeed. Everything is going to be ok. I know it is.

TEAM JENN

Today's Beautiful Thing is compassion. I attended a fundraiser for my cousin's husband's cousin with my husband & best friend. The outpouring of love & support from so many people whose lives she's touched was a Beautiful thing indeed. Go Jenn! Kick some cancer ass!

Teamwork

Today's Beautiful Thing is teamwork. We had a huge project at work today and we all pitched in and got it done. :)

Time

Today's Beautiful Thing is spending time together. The Hubby & I have been enjoying the new Fall programs on TV the last couple of days.
