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!

I have been in such a daze with all that went on in just a few days time that I can't remember who all reached out with pray, books and surprises for Grayson, however;  please KNOW that I am so appreciative of all the kind words, deeds and prayers that were sent up for us.

the snail was loaded upon arrival; Thank you to Pat V for the sheet of KFC coupons (rarely get these, love chicken) 

and a HUGE thank you to Jacci for the assortment of 5 sheets!! the smiles on the grands faces show their appreciation for such awesome choices. 

thank you for all who think of us and the time you take to mail off these RAOKs for us all. It's so wonderful to have such caring friends who do just as each of you do. Spreading joy brings me great joy!
