Update

Here is what the Doctor told me what process that I have to go through from now until November 12,2009. The below information is what I have to do: as of yesterday I had to go off of my thyroid medicine,(side effect of going off of the meds, Very tired, Naseau and basically Just down right exhausted.) On 9/28 start a new med for a month and then go off of it then Start a Low iodine diet for about 2 weeks and the stop that then go to the hospital and take a pill and then do a full body scan takes about an hour then come back the next morning and then radioactive Iodine injected in my viens and then sit in a lead room for about an 1 1/2 hours and then I have to go straight to my in-laws and stay with them for 10 days because I can't be around my children for about 3 days and then after that I can't hug or hold my children for 7 more days and I have to keep a 7 feet distance away from anyone, Also I can't fix meals for anyone but myself also can't share cups or plates so I have to get plates and cups and plasticware that I can throw away.My mother in laws house is big and my apartment is not. I can't use the same bathroom as everyone for 10 days, I have to sleep in separeate bed in another room away from anyone. Can't go in to public places for 10 days , ALOT of precautions because the radioactive Iodine comes out in my sweat saliva and when i use the bathroom .... So you can see my problem , so that is why I have to stay with my in laws. But every 6 months to a year I have to make sure I am tested again and make sure I don't have to go through this every year. Because some of the thyroid tissue can come back. Well that was my day yesterday and today i have a headache from all the stress and I am exhausted . But I hope everyone else 's day went better then mine. Love you all and I will keep you updated. BYEZ My favorite scripture right now and I think from now on is 2 Corinthians 4:16, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I love you soo much and am soo proud of the strong woman that you are , and if I feel that way, being an imperfect( ok, very imperfect) mom, just imagine how Jehovah feels about you. You haven't crawled into a hole of deep depression, but have remained strong and steadfast, keeping to your spiritual routine. You are my hero:), really , I deeply love you my spiritual sister, and always my special girl.
