FRIDAY GRATEFUL POST

Good Friday everyone,

I know that this is the day that everyone or almost everyone looks forward to at the beginning of each week.   I am grateful too that the weekend is almost upon us.    I am also a little saddened today.   My 27 yr. old son has to say goodbye to a friend who died last week from a drug overdose.   A 23 yr. old young woman with 2 small children.    So very sad.   I am grateful that we know where she is today ( she was a Teen Challenge graduate ).   Life is so very short.   We need to be grateful for every minute the good Lord blesses us with everyday.   I am going to the funeral with him this AM.    By God's grace that could be MY son laying there.   She died of a heron overdose and my son was a heron addict too but thanks for a program called Teen Challenge my son has been clean and sober for over 2 yrs. now.   I am grateful for his soberity today.    Grateful for all the Teen Challenge students overcoming their addiction to drugs and alcohol.   I am grateful for my life and my family.   Grateful for my WLS and all the choices of different surgeries today.    Please say a prayer for Amber's friends and family as they all say goodbye to her today.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.   Have a blessed weekend.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
