Members reflected on what they are most thankful for as cancer patients, with overwhelming gratitude expressed for family, friends, faith, and the gift of simply being alive each day. Several members shared how their cancer diagnosis unexpectedly brought positive transformation, including deeper spiritual connections, remission milestones, life-saving lifestyle changes, and appreciation for small moments they once overlooked. A recurring theme was gratitude for effective treatments, supportive medical teams, the beauty of nature, beloved pets, and the strength found in this understanding community.

Like Phillip, this disease actually saved my life. I reconnected with God. So along with my oncologist and Gods healing touch, I'm going on 5 years in remission. I hope ppl. realize without God in your life, surviving leukemia is just short term. Jesus in your life is the only way to get to heaven. I thank God every day he has blessed me and to be able to still enjoy family, friends, and what this life has to offer. I make sure God is first in my life. I hope ppl. do the same.

I am thankful for CLL medications that mean a pill a day controls my WBC. No small thing!
