Alrighty! Just wanted to update you. I started treatment for my thyroid last year, have been feeling better, even though it seems that ,y adrenal glands are stressed.

Now I do stop and smell the flowers more often than before and try to make every moment I spend with my children a memory for them so when I am not around anymore they can remember me in the little things. life has changed,a lot but little by little I am coming to terms on what is becoming and I will do whatever it takes to keep me here a little longer. I have to admit I was...
