The old neck.
I will now write my post. If you don't want to see the after pictures and pictures of "George" don't go to the end of the post. That's my disclaimer :) The OR nurse asked me why I wanted pictures of a cancerous goiter. My reply, "why not?" It's not something you see every day, and technically, it's mine. I grew it. Anyway, after a rough night, I am home. Didn't sleep much but that's because I refused to take anymore of the IV pain meds. They made me out of my head, and I have enough issues as it is, I don't need help. But now I'm home and feeling much better. The pain is controlled and I can once again swallow. My girls are trying desperately to be on their best behavior and Grandma Koeman is here to entertain them. Where would we be without family!! Grandma Blueberry got their dutch costumes ready today so they are all set for the parade tomorrow. I don't go see the MD til Wednesday. He said in 7-10 days I should start to feel the affects of hypothyroidism. He said I'll feel like I have 10 kids and want to nap all the time. Sounds like a great time :) By then Steve will be close to done with planting. Once again, it'll all work out. I hope for some rest tonight and less pain & swelling. Thanks for they prayers.
See it's not that gross. Even served up on a platter :)

I love you:)
Let me guess.. that first picture is right after they gave you the "I don't care medicine?" You don't look a bit nervous!:) Got some education on what a thyroid actually looks like... thanks George!
Someday I'll show you a picture of the rib that my daughter had removed. Yep, we asked for pictures too. Hers has meat on it and everything! Glad you have your sense of humor. Prayers for a quiet night of sleep.
