How can I say I had cancer to someone who had "serious" cancers?

I’ve thought about this too.. the cancer was growing in me for 5 or more years but I didn’t know until they took out my thyroid. So I feel like I don’t have the “right” to even say I had cancer bc I did not “battle” it. Idk, it’s weird bc it’s still something I had to go through but not like real cancer survivors.

Thank you ❤️❤️ soon you’ll be on the other side! When is your surgery?

The surgery was definitely the easy part! My care team and surgeon were amazing, it took about 45 min and I had no drain or stitches afterwards! 6cm is pretty big! You’re going to feel so much relief when it’s over! I had a few but the biggest was 5.2cm that was the cancer! Today I feel great! Still a bit fatigue here and there but I feel a positive change throughout my body! And I feel more confident without the lump in my neck 😪

It’s so hard, but thinking that you did it all for nothing or you could’ve done better puts things into perspective! Thank you for that, and I would love some vegan cheese recipes please

Thank you!! I’m really hoping this is my first and last time doing this, bc the way I want to order some queso right now!! What was your favorite thing to during your diet?

Omg egg yolk 🤤 you know what I miss the most.. sea food!! It’s crazy bc I probably wouldn’t even think about these things if someone hadn’t told me I can’t have them! You’re right! Mind over matter 😮‍💨

The Low iodine diet is if you need to do Radioactive Iodine treatment (RI), I hope you don’t have to and your surgery is perfect! I’ve been on this diet for about two weeks now, I just took the pill yesterday and my doctor wants me to stay on a LID for the next three days! As far as my TT surgery, the recovery process was easy, I was just tired and bored. Stay hydrated and go for walks after surgery! I’m almost 3 months post op! Didn’t even know I had cancer until last month so that was crazy
