Trying to find a new job, since I am moving 50 miles from where I live currently (it would be a 61 mile commute).

Happy Anniversary!

March 3rd marks 4 years since my first cancer surgery. Two re-occurences, two rounds of radiation (I've maxed out on that), and two additional surgeries later, I'm currently cancer free.

All my Best,

My doc says he only needs to remove 1/2 of mine to get the nodule, and that I won't need the RAI... so fingers crossed! I never even thought about having a thyroid before, but now I really want to keep as much of mine as I can. :-)

At 12:34am on March 15th, 2008, Lauren a.k.a Lau said…: Awww thanks. I'm quite nervous about the whole rai stuff and it popping back up again. How strange, I never heard of thyroid cancer before...until that tumor became quite visible. Ick. So thanks, I will def pick your brain when the time comes to 'get radioactive'. lol.
I can't wait to get healthy and start stressing over wedding and house buying instead of cancer! :)

ps- I so have a 'thing' for Grissom... ;) Teehee!
