Hi Marty Thanks. How was your cruise? No I’m not afraid of meds. You know my motto is faith and pills. I have been putting a pill in my tummy that you are supposed to wash your hands after handling. Tki. These are miracle drugs for sure. They saved my life several times. I am thinking of going to a specialist at Moffitt. I never knew so many people were on thyroid meds. I always tell my kids I’m not afraid of dying just the pain that goes with it. I have seen people die in pain and some just pass peacefully. My hubby just went to sleep and never woke up. Poor baby he suffered enough while he was living. He gave himself a shot of insulin daily. He was brave and happy right until the end. Hope everyone is good tonight. ❤️
