My Daughter Is Better!

                                     Thank you all for your prayers! My daughter is better. She returned to the surgeon today, and the pathology report from the removed thyroid showed no malignancy. The choking and pain she is experiencing is sometimes an unfortunate part of the thyroidectomy and the accompanying swelling from the procedure.The doctor told her not to go back to her classes until after Thanksgiving, no lifting,housework, or streneous activity.


I made some spanish rice , refried beans, and spinach salad with bacon /ranch dressing. She ate very carefully in tiny bites and actually even managed the salad. Now she is on the sofa watching HGTV........instead of sleeping 12 hours a day. the doc said the excessive sleepiness is from the double whammy of the surgery and the synthroid medication she is taking. She told me that she will be careful and follow the doc's instructions after I go. Well,she better~~~~Jackie~~~~!
