I didn't mention the fact that Tami had undergone the surgery to remove 1/2 her thyroid a few years before I did. Praise God that hers was not malignant and she was able to keep the other 1/2. She has had to continually monitor the other 1/2 with biopsies ever since, though--gross!! As you can probably tell by now, we have been very good friends for many years, but we do laugh now at our "twinness" (is that a word?) regarding the thyroid thing. However, her scar is a perfectly straight line, and mine is more of a smiley face. (God's way of saying same thing, but different?) She has been a complete sourse of strength and wisdom for me. She recently found out that she will have to have the other 1/2 of her thyroid removed now. She does not have malignancy, but "highly suspicious cells." It is not my story to tell, so I will keep the information just to that minimum. The point I am making is this.......Isn't it amazing how God works and prepares the way? This is another facet in the area of how women will be healed. Tami and I are experiencing the same kind of thing in two completely different ways. It's all about what God is doing in us so that we can give it away to others! God is totally revealing the massive amount of women who are dealing with thyroid issues--mind boggling.
God, we are willing to go through the fire, for we know that you are IN the fire WITH us. We know that in all things You work for the good of those who love You, who have been called according to Your purpose!

You are funny! I don't deny that this THING with the thyroids has brought us closer, but come on! Who wants to go through all of that just so our necks look alike. Hey, maybe I'll have them make my scar a zig zag or zipper look this time.....just to be "fresh and new"! LOL!
