Tonsils and Thyroids...

Okie Dokie with Mike recovering from his tonsilectomy I have been a little sidetracked. I feel bad for him. He is having such a hard time with this. Make sure to keep him in your prayers. He spent the first day throwing up, and then once the hospitals make you feel better drugs wore off, he was no longer feeling better. I have spent the last few day filling up ice packs, making sure docs rules are followed. Today he had a bit of a scare. I was out taking photos for the National Day of Prayer, he was at home and he started bleeding. It was enough to be dripping down his face. He quickly began sucking on ice chips like the doctor said and the bleeding stopped. I am trying to keep an eye that this doesn't happen again. So far since then he has been laying down and trying to sleep.

In thyroid news... I was waiting to get approval to see and ENT to figure out what the next steps are. The insurance approved the ENT yesterday and I called to set up an appointment. I was told the earliest I could get in was the 26th of this month. While I was not excited about this, at least it is not the 4 month wait for the other test. They called back this morning after reading my paperwork and have moved up the appointment to the 16th. Not sure what caused the closer date, but grateful for it. I just want to find out what it is that is growing on my thyroid.

I haven't completely given up on eating healthy, with all this health stuff, I have so not been focused on it at all. I notice I still have some healthy habits that I hang on to, but am only doing it out of habit. Hopefully I will be able to focus soon...
