Suzanne -

Thank you for sharing your intimate and bittersweet journey with your parents 
with us.

Thanksgiving is a holiday that I know is celebrated in the United States, Canada 
and a region of the Netherlands, and there is apparently another kind of holiday 
called Thanksgiving in Grenada, as well.
Perhaps you folks in other countries have Thanksgiving holidays also - called by 
that or other names.

So I will just speak to the one we celebrate here in the States. While it may 
have originated as a colonialist or religious holiday it is now commonly 
celebrated as a day for all kinds of people to feast and give thanks for the 
bountiful harvest - to share lovely food and drink and also to give thanks for 
whatever one wishes to.

I give thanks that your parents, Suzanne, have such a loving and present 
daughter to see them through this challenging time (for all of you).

I give thanks that I am so closely involved in my own parents' care, daily 
lives, wellness and discovery in their own autumnal years.

And I give thanks to you, dear OSLISTers and my dear friend Harrison, for so 
generously sharing, learning, exploring and giving freely your ideas, questions, 
experiences and support for this marvelous process called Open Space.

A deep bow to you all,
Lisa
