My Life As A Thyroid Cancer Survivor



My Life As A Thyroid Cancer Survivor…..


January 9th, 2012
The night I found out I might have Thyroid Cancer.
Luckily enough I was with the BEST friends I have EVER had!!!
My LIFESAVERS!


Being silly to cheer me up haha!



Right after my fine needle aspiration… I am sure I was saying "REALLY?" lol



My Bestie, Mootsie giving me kisses after my first (right lobe) thyroidectomy.



I don't think those glasses were doing me any good haha.



My Breakfast….. LOL!



Erin and I after my First Surgery



Morphine Eyes…. EXPLOITATION!! lol


WOW!! LOL


Great.. now my little sister is in on it! LOL!






Neck Swelling From the Side… Gross!


Ewwwww lol


My Bedmate at the beach the week after surgery. Just relaxing and recovering!


Spoiled Much? HAHA!



Getting there….


 Decided to put a little makeup on to stop scaring ya'll! =)

Silas and I on the beach before we left. It was a great place to begin my recovery!


A Few Weeks Later at Project Homeless Connect. I was disappointed that I couldn't physically do more but it was still an awesome experience.


LOL! Tired and being silly at the end of the day. Very humbling to be able to help those less fortunate than me. Puts a lot of things in perspective.


Before my 2nd (left lobe) partial/total thyroidectomy. My Get Busy Living shirt from Stupidcancer.org came in just in time!


AWESOME organization!! Check it out!


Morning of surgery #2 with my Stupid Cancer Shirt! Ready to kick some Thyroid Cancer's butt!

Guessing this was taken post-meds haha!

 So, I have heard that drunk dialing is a bad thing…. what do they say about being medicated while on Facebook? LMBO!


Looks like I was looking at my phone right? Nope. I was asleep BAHAHA!

Second surgery was definitely the worst! Nausea was horrible.


 Could only sleep sitting up.



Pain face lol


About a week after surgery. THIS is what that "GOOD" cancer looks like!


All I want to do these days!

Love.. LOVE these Thyroid Cancer bands from ChooseHope.org! 
No One Fights Alone… I sure didn't!!


Love my necklace!


Erin Showing her support!



I hope and pray for a cure to ALL cancer. Tammy Taylor you are loved and remembered always by so many people! Fight for a Cure!


3 Weeks Post-2nd Thyroidectomy! Lookin Good!


My SWEET brother sent me this picture. It made me cry like a baby! I love you Kevin!
