I have some Sad News,
I have read all the posts and my mood changed from profound sadness to a powerful sense of hope and good possibilities for you. See how many of our sisters have faced this monster and are cancer free now.....it is so uplifting. You are a strong woman.......and I predict you will be back with a story to inspire all of us.
If sending you a big hug can help in any way....here it comes!!
With so much aloha,

No one ever wants to hear the "C" word and I can't even imagine how you must be feeling right now, but I wanted to say that I will be praying and sending out positive thoughts for you and hopefully from what I hear, this cancer is one that is very slow and beatable, so I'm betting that 2009 finds you cancer free and in the best possible health ever!!!
Hugs, prayers and positive thoughts, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Carla,
I'm so sorry to read your news today. One hellova way to start off the new year. I have a dear friend who also had thyroid cancer. She was treated and is cancer free now, and has been for about 8 years. I know this must be a scary time for you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Huggs,
Cara

Sorry this is late coming, seems everyone has said everything I could say, and more. You may have cancer, but you also have a strong support system, a loving family, and over all good health. All the things it takes to kick this!
I know it must be a very scary time for you, but finding the positives in you life will help to off set the negatives.
All my love and prayers go out to you. You WILL defeat this!

I don't get on the boards much this days and when I do I am usually just a lurker. I am so glad I got on today so I can can keep you in my thoughts and prayers and to tell you what all the others did KICK ASS! Don't hold in your feelings, let them out and find the best doctors you can. I know in my heart you are going to do fine in this new battle!
Lots of Love,
Jan
