“Thanksgiving speaks in clear, crisp tones of almost-forgotten terms like integrity, respect, vigilance, devotion, dignity, honor, discipline, freedom, sacrifice, heroism, humility, peace, and godliness. Its his- toric halls echo with voices embedded in woodwork—voices of Washington, Franklin, Jefferson . . . all of whom challenge us to trim off the fat of indolence, passivity and compromise, to rid ourselves of the stigma of strife and prejudice, and the malignancy of selfish- ness and greed. As everyone around us reaches for more and clings to what is, Thanksgiving drops to its knees, pleading that we release ourselves to others in greater need and set our affections on things unseen. Thanksgiving stands tall and shouts the same message every year: There is a better way to think and to live!” We are thankful for our faithful patients, the ability to hear with assistance of technology and communicate with friends and loved ones especially around this time of year. — Dr. Patti Thigpen
