Thanks for sharing! This stuff is scarey! I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer and I had it taken out this year. Doctors didn’t want to do anything about my “lump in the throat’” but I was insistant. Glad yours came out with good results! Also, hope you know to request a Thyroid shield when you get mammogran? They won’t offer, but have them readily available. They gave me paper stating that mammograms don’t cause cancer, but it’s printed by the College of Radiology, kind of like the tobacco companies saying it’s safe to smoke. Not meaning to rant, but want to get other’s informed. Sometimes it’s the lesser of the evil, but it’s good to know.

I’m so glad that you got a good report! Many prayers were going up for you yesterday. I loved your statement about “the struggle between having faith for God’s healing and accepting the reality of science.” That is SO true during moments like this. What a blessing to have a supportive husband and that promise of “sickness and health,” no matter what. Hugs!
