Wish I had your results, though. Mine was cancer, but it had not (hopefully) spread as my lymph nodes seem fine. My whole thyroid had to be taken out. Have heard that if you are going to get cancer, thyroid is the best to get. I was shocked how much that surgery took out of me! The nausea, swallowing, coughing, congestion, hunger and weakness, terrible hospital food, and I had requested a private room so my guy could sleep there with me ~ didn’t get one until the second night. Have always thought that laying next to him gives me healing energy, so was happy to have him in bed with me every chance that I got. So, now it has been a week since the surgery. Glad I didn’t know what I was getting into or I would have really been apprehensive about even going through with it. A month from now, my memory will probably fade and I will forget about what I went through and will be happy that the cancer is out of my body. Just yesterday I had a qigong healer work on me ~ she told me that I have to love the cancer (for helping to teach me) or it will not want to totally leave my body. (She said that all of us have a few cancer cells.) What an interesting thought. I guess it makes sense that any time you hate or are angry, it only produces negative results. I’m rambling . . . sorry. Another thing ~ my incision is covered by a wide piece of clear tape and under the tape are many small pieces of white tape, going the opposite direction as the clear tape. Hate to think about how they are going to be getting off the large piece of clear tape. I feel like I have been through enough with this 🙂

Glad to hear you are doing well . . . isn’t it wonderful to have it behind you . . . Camille
