Update on Me (if anybody cares) The Dr's office called yesterday and said they'd scheduled an appointment for discussing taking care of my thyroid through radiation. I said OK. Then, the Radiologist called me an hour later and said he wanted to do it over the phone, and give me the radiation treatment today. So I talked with him for quite a while. He says I have Graves disease (updated : I previously said White's disease), and highly recommended the radiation treatment, although there are a couple of other options. After weighing out the options, I've decided to go ahead and do the radiation treatment, because it doesn't completely kill the thyroid. It just severely hurts it. I'll be taking a good dose of Iodine-131 , which has the sideaffect of not being around my unborn baby for a while, which in turn means staying away from Erica. That won't be fun.

I'm excited to see the girls whenever you come.
And I gotta say, it totally reminds me of the days when Cambrie was about that age and she ran around singing the "Ah AH AHH ahhiahaho!" (if you didn't recognize it that was the beginning of the song from Sleeping Beauty as she walked through the forest..) and Chad would keep saying: "MOM! Make her stop!!!"
Good thing that Kiera doesn't have an older brother!
