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~~~~!
By the way,I found a new blog community today, and it seems super. Check it out! frogblog!

Jackie, I am pleased as punch to hear this great news! And she's going to recoup beautifully, too. This beginning part is the hardest just like after any surgery, but already she's a trooper because she ate the salad and you know that couldn't be easy. Ahhhh, Thanksgiving arrived early and by the turkey day, she'll be saying, "Ooooo, this is good!"
ReplyDeleteJackie, I am tickled pink to hear this great news! And I know you are so relieved! She's going to do just fine now and will recoup beautifully. By Thanksgiving day she'll be saying how good everything tastes, but on the other hand, I'd say Thanksgiving came about a week early :D
ReplyDeleteJackie, daggone it, lol. I knew I'd been over here yesterday and left a comment. This morning I thought maybe it didn't take. So now you have 2 almost identical. Choose one and toss the other out, ok? HA. I was talking about Thanksgiving and maybe I should be talking about Christmas and my wish for a new brain :D
ReplyDeleteJackie, so glad to hear she is doing better. But, you will never know how thankful I am you put all of these books up for us to see. I was diagnosed earlier this year with Hashimoto's Thyroditis. I am experiencing alot through this journey and trying to learn all I can. So, now you know you have touched someone by posting this info!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Thanksgiving!
