My cell phone has a quote signed after every text and email that I send off to someone  that reads:

"always believe in the possibilities of a miracle"

I have firm beliefs that miracles do happen but sometimes they truly feel like unreachable tasks.....

Were you diagnosed with Graves' disease?

By "high thyroid", do you mean your thyroid was prodicing too much hormone or that your TSH was high?

Which medication do you take?
