Meet with the surgeon today- she was very nice & I had a very good vibe from her- DH & I liked her very much! (Even tho her office was at the Yawkey Cancer Ctr) I still don't like that word!
As I thought my whole thryroid will have to be removed! Dr did another ultra-sound, she said that the whole right side of my thyroid was not visable due to the size of the tumor!
Left side has Hashimoto's thryroiditis (weird name huh??!!) So, therfore, the whole thing has to be removed! Dr said I can pick the date of surgery- as it is a very slow growing tumor! I am going to shoot for the end of August-- after the grand-babies are born, then I will be fine for our trip to Vegas in Novemeber (hopefully) The Dr said I will be fine to go !
Just thought I would let you ladies know what happened today-- as you have been asking & I'm very thankful for your interest & well wishes!
Now am waiting for the babies--- DD#2 had a Dr visit today- was sent to hsp for a stress test- as baby Cameron is not moving too much (probably no room left)-- but all went fine- fetal monitor showed Cameron moved 9 X in 5 min & no signs of distress on his part-- so Dr was happy with that! So now we just wait & wait & wait! DD#3 had her appt too- all was fine with her too/ another ultra sound in 2 weeks to see how much weight Catherine is gaining- Dr said they will only let her get to be 9 1/2 lbs ! whewww! My DS was 10 1/2 lbs! but he was my fourth !
Ok now that this has turned into a newspaper to read! I will say good night !
Hugs, Bunny


Hey Bunny,
Least it's kind of neat you can pick the date.
That way yes you'll be around for the new babies, YaY!
Oh and you must be fine for Vegas
Cool on your dd's having good appointments.
Now I guess it's up to the babies, LOL
Love reading all about this.
Appreciate you sharing :)
Hi bunny,
Suzan, lol- you made me laugh about the megaphone--it very well could be a possibility!
It all has been so very airy--yesterday the girls had Dr appointments 15 min apart, one at 3:15, the other at 3:30! I really would'nt be at all surprised if they did have the babies really close together- hopefully not the same day! They deserve thier own birth days!
Thank you for the well wishes on my own problems- but I know everything will be fine- I am thinking positive thoughts!
Hugs, Bunny
