Merci Beaucoup! Tuesday, September 01, 2009 1:23 AM

Holy smokes, I am completely blown away by the response to my previous post. I don't know what to say -- and I feel like I've been overusing this phrase, but I sincerely mean it: thank you so, so, so much for all the well wishes and words of encouragement. You have no idea how touched I was. Whenever I'm having a bad day, I will be referring back to all the comments you guys left.

Also, for those who want to do something, please consider giving blood to your local blood bank. Due to a low hemoglobin count, I received seven bags of blood during my two weeks in the hospital and it's all thanks to the generous donors. Plus there are a lot of people who need blood, everyday.

xoxo!

*Hugs* Je vous en prie.

Your words of encouragement to give blood in light of your situation shows a lot of character. Stay positive and know that there are many people around to pick you up when you feel down =).

Hi dear
I used to read your blog but have spent a long time travelling. Now I'm back and just read about your condition.
Stay positive! Take care of your mind and soul. Do what your doctors tell you to do and definitely stay positive. This will help you stay healthy and fine. Read positive books and watch funny movies. Call your friends and have a nice chat. My parents got ill and I've realized how we respond to events in life determine how we feel and as consequence we find strength to overcome obstacles. All the best! :)

It's good to hear from you! Can I just say how inspirational your positive attitude is? As my Wii Fit would say, "Keep it up!"

You're right, I've only give blood twice, should do it more often.. The beautiful pictures you made in HK convinced me to make a trip there, I'm going in october. Take care

what a shock your previous post was...

i immediately e-mailed the person who suggested that i add your blog to my list of must-reads.

i like your tag: Life.
it is Life, isn't it?

take care, i will continue to check in on you, and eventually work up the courage to donate blood.
