Came home today to a very quiet house. My wife and kids headed out today to visit my mom, and 'help' her recover, after my mom had her thyroid removed earlier this week.
No...the good news is it wasn't cancer. She went through all the typical stressful tests, including nuclear dyes, and a biopsy, but after receiving the good news that it wasn't cancer, she had to deal with the fact that because there were a large number of bumps and nodules on the thyroid, she was going to have repeat that stressful testing every 6-12 months...or she could just have the thyroid removed and go on hormone replacement stuff.
She decided to go down the conservative path. The surgery went well, and now she is recovering with some of the most beautiful assistants in the world.
Meanwhile...things are quiet on the home front...but at leas the chickens were happy to see me...or rather the tomato that I was carrying for them.
