おかげさまで

expression

thankfully; fortunately; by grace or providence

Polite set phrase used when reporting that things are going well or turned out well. It can sound like 'thankfully' or 'fortunately'; any religious sense such as 'by God's grace' is usually only background nuance in modern use.

• おかげさまで、母ははの体たい調ちょうはだいぶ良よくなりました。

  Thankfully, my mother's condition has improved a lot.

• おかげさまで、今年ことしも無ぶ事じに年としを越こせそうです。
