Busy

I can't keep up these days. Hopefully soon. When does soon come anyways? Who am I kidding? So the 411 around here is that I do not have thyroid cancer. Both nodules are benign, one nodule has abnormal cells. If it grows at all I get to have them out. Not too worried about it. Lot's of people live with thyroid nodules. I am done with radiation and right around Thanksgiving I will be starting my monitor mode. I will have blood work every six weeks and CT scans every 3 months. I am going to go to Mayo for a second opinion. It is not because I do not like my Doctor's, it is just a smart move to get a different angle on things. I am told the biggest worry is recurrence, and the most likely place for that is my right rib cage where the first tumor was and or my lungs. I feel better every day and have more energy it seems. Some days I I feel worn down so much quicker and others it's like I never had a tumor. I can't lay on my right side. That missing rib sure messed that up for me. For what I have been through I feel really good. I am grateful for every day with my family. Things could have been so different for me and I am so thankful to be where I am!

My kids never stop, in the last two weeks Wild Thing broke the neighbors window. Miss M and Sweet K went door to door collecting Money for the starving children in Africa. I am am making them donate their meager earnings. We went to see Grandpa and Grandma M in Prescott and had a fun eventful fall break. I kept them busy and tried to spend as much family time together as we could. I have been MIA with this darn tumor and just wanted to give them as much of me as I could. Baby J sleeps through the night and has since he was 2 months old. What a good boy!. We sure love him and his big smiles. Life as usual, that is the way I like it.
