Easy Like Sunday Morning

Another post from Neb. Your lucky day!!

I saw the pics of Sarah's shower on Flickr. Looks like a lot of fun. The church is beautiful and so is Sarah's dress.

Hmm, I wonder why it says you are the Searcher?? Are you really Lizzie?

I didn't realize there were thyroid issues in the family. I have undocumented long term and short term memory issues though. I do remember now that one of Mom's medications was synthroid or something like that.

I also honestly didn't think to get anxious or wonder what was going on. I guess since it took two months to get in to see Dr. Sipos, I forgot about it. I so live in the moment, kind of like a chicken. I didn't worry about it at all really. There are so many things that show up on my scans that Dr. Mrozek says people "my age" are running around with and don't even know about it.

I just don't think about things that are going on with my body much. If I have pain, I deal with that. If Dr. Mrozek isn't worried about something, then I sure the heck am not going to.
Anyway, it is good that she is into my survival and does her due diligence to check out the things that throw up a red flag to her because I am more inclined to deal with the things that hurt, but might be insignificant to my overall mortality. A few months ago I did fret over the fact that my fingernails were kind of lifting and causing me discomfort and hanging me up when I wanted to pry things or dig weeds or sew. I worked around all of that and they are all better now, but in the whole scheme of things, it was a minor side effect of chemo and not not life threatening. I guess I see the little picture - like my backyard, not the whole world crisis.

Again, I ramble.
