Thought for the day and everyday after!

When you take a step back, we truly are some of the strongest people out there. We have children at home, hubby's and wives to care for, work to attend, dinner to be made, houses to be cleaned etc... and all on top of having no thyroid or half!! Then, we have to wait and see if our meds work properly or have to tweeked 1-10 times!!! I mean who goes through this??? WE DO LADIES and GENTLEMEN!!! I am sitting here, 1 week post op taking care of a 5 month old and 3 year old. Making them luch and bottles, changing poopy diapers and having DORA THE EXPLORER screaming inthe background! LOL!!

My point is that we are very strong people and I am thankful that the good lord above made the strong person that I am. I know many many people that might be in our situation and would never make it!! :) Meaning the strength they dont have. And I believe my husband is one of those people unfortunately. He gets a cold and I hear it for a week!! My MY MY!!

it could be so much worse, we could be on the othe rforums dealing with loss or breast cancer, heart failure etc... I am not saying that what we are going through isnt HE//... but at least we have a fighting chance today and everyday... the road is just a little bumpy for us at times.

Hang in there team!! We shall all prevail!! maybe not today or tomorrow, but soon!!

Cheers to Team Thyroidless or Halfies!!

It's amazing how time flies, isn't it?  I'm skidding right up to the anniversary of the thyca diagnosis (the 25th), and boy was that a shocker.  My primary doc, my endo, the doc that did the FNA ~ none of them thought it was cancer.  Surprise!!  Nothing could prepare me for the rollercoaster of emotions after that diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

On August 6th, it'll be a year since my TT, and like you I can't believe it went so fast.  Some of it hasn't been a whole lot of fun, but I'm very thankful that for the most part, I feel so much better now.  The doc seems to have hit my dosage right on the nose.  My levels are right where they want them, and I feel a lot better.  I'm just so glad that the cancer was caught and is now gone.

And Stella is right on.  I've found some wonderful people on this forum that helped me through some very rough times, and am so thankful for every last one of them!!

As I was reading through that, I thought I'd read it somewhere before.  Then I read the "1 week post op", and I thought, boy ~ I've been away from the forum for a while.  The poor thing had to have surgery AGAIN!!.  Then I read the follow up post.  :-))

You're very right.  It's a tough job, but we somehow muddle our way through.  I know for me personally, I think back to September when I was so stinkin' hypo, that I could barely move.  I STILL continued to cook, clean, do laundry, etc.  I don't know how I did it!!  But we do, because like you said, we're strong.  What's that saying......What doesn't kill you will make you stronger?  Yep!

Thanks for the reminder.
