Okay so about a month ago I learned I had a problem w/ my thyroid. Most people probably wouldn't be too happy but I was actually over joyed to know there was a cause to the way I was feeling (sooooo tired that when Eva would throw a fit at the grocery refusing to get in her car seat, I was at the point I'd tell her get in or I'll have to leave you here -- so yes that tired!).
But now I have swelling in my right ankle, I know maybe I hurt myself, but even though I'm clumsy I can't remember a time when I might have hurt myself. So I reluctantly called the doctors office -- they wanted to draw my blood to check for Hashimoto's disease... okay, except the draw my blood part. I hate that!
So this morning the girls and I got up and went first thing -- got there when they opened. B/c Grace had just gotten her kindergarten shots she was all about taking care of me. We get there and Grace & Eva go back w/ me, Grace is squeezing my hand so hard I can barely feel my fingers - I guess a good way to take my mind off a blood draw! Then Grace says, "Oh Mommy this is going to HURT - there is a lot of blood! Do you want to see it?" They took 3 tubes so that's the blood she saw, but the nurse was super nice and let Grace but the band aid on:-)
Maybe we have a doctor in the making!
