Everything went very well. They only needed to remove the right half (once they were in there, a pathologist tested the mass to see if it had any cancer cells...I'd had a biopsy, but this was a more thorough inspection. If it had been cancerous they would have removed the other half of my thyroid as well). I also did not need a drain after surgery.
I stayed the night at Good Sam that night. While I missed my sweet baby boy, it was good to just rest and worry about resting and recovering.
My Aunt Susan was here for the week, so she took care of Corben while Steve and I were at the hospital that day. Thank goodness she was here! We were able to have a ton of fun in the days before my surgery as well, so that was good.
I am feeling really good, just get tired easily...probably from the anesthesia still leaving my system. I am just trying to rest as much as possible. Luckily Corben likes to snuggle in for naps with his mama ;-) The stitches on my neck are really starting to itch, which Steve keeps telling me is a good thing, meaning it is healing together. It's not painful or infected so I'll just take his word for it.
Anyway, that is what has been going on with us. Corben is on the verge of crawling. He can now push up to his knees and elbows. He still doesn't realize that this can take him anywhere, but he'll be on the move soon enough.
This is from Tuesday when we went to Lake Pleasant for the day :)
