Had to postpone RAI! WHEN IT RAINS IT POURS!

I had to reschedule RAI!  My father passed this week so I had to go to Daytona Beach.  My RAI was suppose to be on Friday but had to leave out on Thursday!!  Not an easy thing to go thru ever much less when your in full blown HYPOHE//!!  This has been a week from hell I think/hope it has hit bottom and can only get better from here!

Hope everyone is feeling ok!  I'm in the process of looking back thru post to see but I'm a little slow!

I am holding up ok right now.  I am back and called to reschedule, haven't heard back yet.  I know I seemed cold leaving and a little bit while I was there because I DO have to worry about me.  I have 2 children that need me.  I am 5 weeks post op and with out meds now, so there was no way i could wait around anymore.  

Thank you all  for all the encouragment and prayers, I sure need it right now!

Sorry hun - I hope this goes well for you.

Did you happen to call you doctor who ordered the RAI and let them know you will have to postpone it? You must do that - How long are you going to to be gone and when will they get you in for the RAI?  

Hypohe//  will hit you sooooo hard if you wait to long .... and it will be even more suffering for you after.

I hate to sound one sided - but you also need to think of yourself right now - This will be very stressful for you and you will need to manage yourself too.

Thoughts going your way.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

There is no good time to lose a parent, but it is harder to deal with when you are so ill.
