Please use this thread to post thanks for the RAOK gifts, wishes granted, and anything else you are thankful for here on PBS.  Let's try to keep the ***RAOK*** and ***I Wish*** threads easier to check for wishes to grant and goodies to request.

Note: *PLEASE* be sure to thank people who grant your RAOK wishes. It's not necessary to do it here in the thread, if you would prefer to PM privately to let the sender know you received your gifts. Unfortunately, things do get lost in the mail. In addition, senders have mentioned that they have not heard from the people they have sent things to, and wonder if the items have been received. We hesitate to keep sending to someone who does not acknowledge gifts. If someone declines your request, that may be the reason.  Senders contact me in frustration, saying that they do not know if items are received and that it is usually the same people who do not correspond. Most have decided not to send to those requestors again. It is sad, but necessary to them. So please respond in some way.

If you have questions, please feel free to PM me and ask.  And thanks for using this thread to say Thank You to our wonderful wish granters!

Thank you to Cheryl R for the extra cute year of the Dragon puzzle and bookmark.  Very fun and a nice surprise!  

Thank you, Vicky, for the postcard of Chimney Rock.  This is so cool!  I haven't heard of it and now I'd love to see it in person.  Thank you for sharing your adventures!  :)

Hi everyone, wanting to check in and let you all know that i have not left, i'm sorry i have not been around or answer back quickly but i just renew today so i'm here for another year, I just have not been myself for months and still trying very hard.  Therapy is kind of helping but i have been pushing it away it's just to much to deal with.  Trying to get over the mountain like both therapist says it's very hard the closer to the problem i get, my eating disorder is in full force my bulimia nervosa has my sugar levels crazy it has gone down to low 50s and fighting the racing thoughts and the OCD it's all hitting at one time, have to fight the urge of doing other things, sleep is like two to three hrs a night. 

Tomorrow i have a video appt with my psychiatrist and have not done my homework that was asked of me, i will try to do a little before 10:00am just not liking all the question from both the therapist and psychiatrist and they also want me to start reading again, since i use to read a lot and i haven't in a very long time.  I also have PT again for my knees and my back so that's another appt i have to many of them in a week, this week coming i have 5 dr appts. 

ok, just trying to catch up with all the wonderful people on here.  Hugs.

Thank you Patrice for the drink mixes you ordered for me from Amazon. Just found them outside my door ( they didn't knock). Couldn't figure out what it was at first because they had them in a huge box ( you could have put 500 boxes in that box that those two little boxes were in). I do appreciate it. But I did think it was funny about the huge box they sent them to me in.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you all so much for helping to make my beloved dad's birthday on Sunday so very special. He was so very touched by receiving so much love, birthday prayers,and good wishes from across the country thanks to each of you answering God's call to contribute. Dad is still enjoying looking through his birthday binders. I made him 10 total binders! I have not yet counted the total number of postcards. I know some of you have asked me that--answer to come :) My guess is I received close to 300 postcards for him! Greeting cards and notes in addition to all the postcards! Thank you, thank you much! Should any of you want a picture of an album or two PM me including your email address should I not already have it, God Bless You. Sweet Dreams later. Please know you have made such a kind difference to both my dad and myself. Thank you! Hugs!
