My Brother, The Actor....

Someday I will tell you about the Perry's. But for now, I must say, never in a million years would I think about a Perry being an actor. Comedian, absolutley. Actor, no way! But here it is, my bro, acting his little heart away and I must say, he is pretty darn good. He stopped for a brief period, (five years) and got back into it which I am so thrilled, especially since his rendition of Glengarry Glen Ross can resurface. I just hate talent going to waste. Now if I can only get my husband to paint again sigh..........

Adam's Apple, Goiter, and Thyroglossal Duct Cysts

OK. so I may be spelling Thyroglassal Duct Cyst wrong. Sorry...... I guess I can do spell check on this? Well...... I have been to other blogs and diary's and websites that have people speak about this TDC and here I am about to speak about mine. Thanks to those who shared their info on surgery and Dr's visits and such and for showing pics.
I had this Cyst show up a few weeks ago on a Sunday, day after garage sale and friends over for Mexican food. Had a great time and that was the last night of me having a nice, normal, slender neck which I was proud of. I hate my neck now! I asked my daughter and husband if they could come and take a look at me and tell me that I always had this protruding Adam's apple. They told me it looks swollen and that they did not think it was always there but they were not sure. So, I knew I had to go and check it out and sure enough it is not supposed to be there unless I was a man. I must say that I have seen some women with more pronounced Adam's apples but unfortunately I am not one of them. So off to Ear Nose and Throat Doctor, he feels it is the TDC and sent me yesterday for a Cat Scan. Was not too bad. I was not fond of the Contrast that gets injected through my circulatory system so that the bastard can light up like a Christmas tree and give the Dr's a better picture of the structure of the cyst. I could feel the warm liquid go through every part of my veins, hitting my heart with a Kurplunk and then down to the groin area where the sensation of warm bathtub time crept in and then out through the toes and gone in a flash! I am going to be a mess when they have to put me under. I know I will be the one who feels the whole surgery only to be paralized.......

Just Getting Started

Ok. I am not a fan of blogging because I have never in my life tried it but I have all these crazy things that I find amusing in my mind that I should write down and by the time I think about grabbing a pen and paper, I forget. That is nothing new in general, happens all the time and now that I am starting to blog, I have nothing amusing to say, at this very moment. So, where do I write all of my info down? Have to look around on this site and see where profile, likes, dislikes, etc. go. I had a friend who blogged and I felt she was a fabulous writer. Where are you friend? That was years ago when I used to follow her every word and now she is lost and i can't find her. Maybe she will stumble upon mine and we can reconnect..... So, welcome Amy, (that's me) to Blog Blog Blog. How freakin uncreative................ Must change that.......
