Happy Sunday Everybody!!
So as you all know I was up in Boston for more testing last week, and came home with a large weight off my shoulders, when the doctor said my thyroid tests looked okay and I was good to go...
The next day I received a phone call from my doctor, saying that my tests came back the opposite of what she told me and that I went from having hyperthyroid levels to really high hypothyroid levels in a 3 week span of time. I do have thyroid disease, which can be managed with synthetic hormone treatment. She also mentioned that I will probably have trouble conceiving and when I begin trying to conceive, I will need some additional hormones, most likely to help my body make a baby.
As some or all of you know I have always wanted to be a mom, more than almost anything. The thought that I may not be able to conceive was pretty upsetting, but I know I will overcome this, like the many other things I have overcome in my life.
This has not changed my thoughts on donating my eggs, if anything, it makes me want to help a couple even more, knowing that someday I may need someone to do the same selfless act for myself.
A year ago, I would have broke down with hearing the news and just given up, but today I am stronger! I have faith that god will make what is meant to be, happen in my life. I have faith that the more good I do for others, the more good will keep coming back at me, like it has so far.
Dream Big & Have Faith!
