I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's 15 years ago. 13 years ago we discovered a small cancerous tumor on my thyroid and had it removed. I eat gluten free, take Armour Thyroid (mostly because I never felt good while on Synthroid/Levothyroxine) and I take supplements that help support my gut, liver and kidneys. I am human-sometimes I fall off the wagon of consistency with supplements, but when I feel my Hashimoto's starting to flare I go back on this regimen and it helps to calm everything down. In addition to supplements I practice hot yoga (the best detox IMO), practice diaphragmatic breathing to calm my Vagus nerve, use a rebounder periodically for lymphatic drainage and I have accupuncture one per month. It's frustrating to have to figure all of this out on my own, and it's not cheap, but there is nothing worse than feeling crappy and nothing better than feeling good so I do what I can to control what I can control
This one is near and dear to my heart. In 2023 my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. This was a huge shock for all of us, especially when it has never ran in the family. There is not a lot of time to process a diagnosis like this, and treatment has to be done FAST. My mom was given the choice to go through chemo, where there was no guarantee it would destroy all the cancer, or to have a double mastectomy. She chose the mastectomy. I cannot say that I know exactly how she felt, but I know it was a really dark time for her. She had a hard time accepting she was losing her breasts and she felt like a piece of her womanhood was about to be taken from her. It was so important for me to give her as much love and support during this time for her. I am so thankful to say, she is doing so much better and was able to have a reconstructive surgery. I tried my best to provide her with items that were helpful after her surgery (for the mastectomy and the reconstructive surgery). These were items that my mother told me were her favorite and we would love to share her favorites as it might help someone else navigating this journey. If you or someone you know is battling breast cancer, I just want to say I am praying for you!
