Making a gratitude list at this time each year reminds me of the good things in life that can get overlooked in each dayâs distractions. High on my gratitude list this year is enjoying good health for me, my family and having quality health care close to home. I am thankful for the time and talent invested over many years in building a health-care system that is ready to provide care when my family and my neighbors need it.Â
