The second grade performed their songs from movies for the PTA meeting on Thursday night, plus there was a gorgeous Texas sunset on our way out.
My thyroid levels are at 29, so I'm going in for my treatment this week for 2 days at the hospital. Basically, I'll just drink the radioactive iodine, and let it work through my body. I can't be around children or pregnant women at all for the 2 days, so we opted to do it at the hospital. Everything I bring has to be disposable (clothes, books, magazines, no cell phone, no laptop) so I'm basically going to hang out and be radioactive for a little while, lol! My Dad teases me that I'm going to be like Cousin Eddie :)
They'll do a body scan afterward to see if they got all the cancer cells, and if I'm clear, they'll be able to start me on thyroid medication. So, here's hoping that the first treatment is all it takes!
