It has taken many years of highs and lows, but I can say, \u2018I am ME.\u2019 Finding \u2018me\u2019 has allowed me to live a life of love, happiness,&nbsp;and contentment with myself, my family, and friends.\u201d<\/p><cite>Debbie L.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI am grateful for the \u2018Gift of Life.\u2019 Almost 10 years ago, I received a kidney from a friend of mine. I\u2019m looking forward to celebrating this 10-year anniversary in the spring. Every day is a gift!&nbsp;#Donatelife\u201d<\/p><cite>Sara B.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI\u2019m so grateful to have been given additional \u2018borrowed\u2019 time with my mother. Twice this year, we were certain we were going to lose her, but she defied the odds. So grateful to the wonderful team of caregivers helping us make her final weeks and months as happy, comfortable, and peaceful as possible. This year has been a continuing lesson to cherish the moments we have together.\u201d<\/p><cite>Karen C.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cMy \u2018gremlin\u2019 and the gift of family he has given me. They all are encouraging me on my journey to fight the demons of my past that cause my PTSD, anxieties, and depression, so that I can be the best me\u2014the true me. So very different from my birth family, who, throughout the years, tried to keep me quiet.\u201d<\/p><cite>Stephenie B.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI am grateful to my style sisters who I have met through Dia. The days when I am feeling down, I have an amazing support system. The days that I am feeling\u00a0good, which are increasing, I am able to share and encourage other women. I am learning to embrace the word \u2018fat\u2019 and learning to love myself for who I am right now\u2014not who I could be 10 or 20 lbs lighter. It has changed my entire outlook on life and allowed me to spend more time focusing on the important things.\u201d<\/p><cite>Laura M.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Want to get in on the conversation? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/DiaCoNationalCommunity\/\">Request to join the Dia&amp;Co National Community Facebook group today<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November is here! \u2018Tis the season for giving thanks and showing your loved ones how grateful you are for them.
