Just found out today

A cousin that my Sisters and I are close with is at the hospital right now having something done due to finding she has Thyroid Cancer.  Apparently, someone came up over a year ago about Thyroid and she was told things were okay and would be good.  Now here she is.  We don't know yet what other particulars about it, since we just heard today.

This poor thing gets all the weird stuff happen...a blood/bone infection in her jaw after knee surgery, a mini-coma from taking antibiotics many years ago.

Thyroid is much more widespread than we realize .. I think that is part of it.  It's coming to the forefront moreso than ever now because of advanced technology and level of awareness .. welcome to our community and keep us posted!
