"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha
YIKES! I sure can't top the previous wishes. Barb is waxing poetic, Shirley has used every last emoticon, and Peg has popped out of the cake! See, Tex, you bring out the best in us.
I am here, too, on the bandwagon, to wish you a wonderful day....and year. You deserve only the best. Thanks for being the glue that keeps this incredible family together and for being such a very dear friend to all of us.
And now, all together..........
Happy Birthday to youuuu
Happy Birthday to youuuu
Happy Birthday dear Tex
Happy Birthday to you!
And many more........
Lots of love and a big birthday hug

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
You have given us a very large gift by helping us understand and deal with our mystery condition. (Someday I think it will have a better, more specific name than MC.) I don't think we can thank you enough, honestly.
So this is blunt and unpoetic, but immensely sincere. Thank you and Happy Birthday, Marsha
Hi Wayne. I hope all of your wishes will come true and that you had a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! If I may get a bit sentimental, isn't it a miracle that we all found each other? You have been such a good friend and confidant and mentor to us all. We love you, Wayne.
for all the happy birthday wishes, and the kind words. I appreciate each and every one of you.
I have to agree with Carrie that it's a miracle that we all found each other. I guess it's true that there's a silver lining to every cloud, because as unpleasant and debilitating as this disease can be, without it, I would never have found the most incredible group of friends in the world. Thank you all for being here, and for sharing your time and your love.
Much love to all,
Wayne
It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
You have waxed the philosophical truth with that last statement.
Hope you don't mind my lack of color here, but I hope you know that all of us deeply appreciate your tireless efforts in keeping this ship afloat. What would we do without our friends who understand!
Thank you so much, and now, pull out the stops and make this your best year ever!
to U
