Dear Immune System

Thanks.

All these years we've gotten to know each other, I've made an effort not to compromise our "understanding" and, every once in a while, even sleep. Whatever I've done or not done, you've come through. So much so that, despite the oodles 'n oodles 'n noodles of chipper, dapper, and downright voracious microbes and toxins glad to "do their thing" by any means possible, we've managed to keep the lights on in this here...body thing.

Even though our communication has been grand and our intrapersonal skills have been thriving these years, I'm also writing you this blog entry, not to embarrass you, but to serve as a more open expression of my appreciation.

Immune systems the world over, here operates an immune system among immune systems. Through thick and thin, an with very little outside help, this immune system has consistently kept average yearly sick days down to less than 1 calendar day, has made quick issue of distracting colds and prospective flu tenants, and has maintained informative and insightful dialog to warn of current and pending immune security threats.

I couldn't ask for amore engaged and responsible immune system, and I'm at a loss for words.

Mom, Dad.... thank you both for your contributions that have made this stellar relationship probable. I will do my very best to help ensure future generations might experience sublimity like that of this blissful immuni...mony.
