Today is un dia muy importante. It's the second anniversary of my thyroidectomy. Yup, two years ago on this day, that little butterfly-shaped gland in my neck was ripped out. It was not fun. I had a goiter and this endocrinologist in Syracuse my parents took me to said if it wasn't removed it would just keep getting bigger, until eventually my neck was just one big goiter! Well, not really. But it definately wouldn't just disappear one day. The horizontal scar across my neck has gotten fainter. I have to take Levoxyl every day for the rest of my life. That sounds kind of sad. Awww. But I can turn this day into a happy event. When I get back to my mom's house, I'm going to bake a cake. Maybe chocolate with frosting. And I'm going to write "Happy 2nd Anniversary of your thyroidectomy, Nicole!" Oooh, and candles too. How fun.
