I'm just wondering if anything else in my life can go wrong. My best friend just had thyroid cancer surgery to remove her tumor & thyroid & has to go thru radiation therapy. And me I just lost my job! & am stressed out to the max. My Fibromaylgia is flaring & I know it's from stress & weather change. Although this is my favorite time of the yr, it always causes my Fibro (short for Fibromaygia) to flare up. I just hope things get better...What else can I say.... thats all for today.

So I'm reading a new book, one that my friend Vickie bought. It's called "help me live - 20 things people with cancer want you to know". This is such a good book when it comes to caring for & communicating with Vickie & what she's going thru. Tues I will be going with her & Mark to the surgeon's for her consult & to set up surgery. I hope they will get her in ASAP, she is so anxious & down & I am looking forward to a good prognosis & her feeling better.

Well my plans for the beach were interrupted on Wednesday w/Bad News!
Let me start from the beginning, Our friends Mark, Vickie & their daughter Catherine (who's 20) lives with me, my husband Todd & my daughter Jessica (who's 17). Vickie who is my best friend, just found out on Wednesday that she has Thyroid Cancer. She is 44, is Bi-Polar, has MS & now has Thyroid Cancer
what more can this woman take?? :(
A few months back she went to a Dr for Lap-Band surgery & during a exam he found a growth/nodule. Her ultrasound showed a growth the size of a 1/2 dollar & it is starting to block her windpipe/trachea. I've been going with her to her Dr appt's the last one was to the Endocrinologist where they did a 10 needle biopsy. This is how they found the cancer. It's not in the nodule but in the thyroid itself. The Dr also found the nodule on the thyroid, in a MRI done of her brain in 2007. It's been there 3 yrs & no one has found it til now. WTF!!!
