Thyroid Cancer

Got the biopsy results today ... I have a thyroid cancer. I have an appointment with Dr. Helvig tomorrow at 9:10am to find out more information and what my options are as far as treatment. From what I've read, the most effective treatment is removal of the thyroid completely. I found a website that has pretty good information about Thyroid Cancer. Not exactly sure what is going to happen tomorrow, but since they didn't tell me to not eat after a certain time I'm almost positive that I will be home tomorrow afternoon, so will update my site again with more information.

Now, my favor to ask of you... please don't worry. I've done enough of that for all of us! Please keep Scott and I in your thoughts and prayers. I believe strongly in the power of prayer, so even if you don't believe in God or prayer or put much stock in religion, the simple act of sending positive thoughts our way helps.

Tonight I added pictures of Shadow, TC & Teddy ... plus a couple more of Trouble. Check out the My Zoo! link to the left! Since I have so many pictures of my dogs, it's taking me a little longer to sort out the ones that I like, so look for them soon.
