Sorry to hear it, truly. Sounds like though if she had to get cancer this was one of the "better" ones (though that is like say which BBQ do you prefer to be grilled on).

Good luck to her!

Family comes first, you do what you have to do to help out mom. Car parts and other BS come and go.

As a radiation oncologist (cancer doctor) I have treated thyroid cancer quite a bit. It is a VERY curable disease and even when it comes back it RARELY hurts a person or causes them to die early.

Radioactive iodine has a high cure rate in addition to surgery.

I have also treated a lot of prostate cancer... and usually it is also very indolent and hard to die from.

I hope I could give you all some medical insight to make you feel better. As others have said, these are very slow growing cancers and the cure rate is VERY high.

feel free to IM me with questions.

Sorry to hear about everyone coming down with Cancer. It's never a fun time and just leads to tons of heartache and inconvenience. The thyroid cancer isn't as dangerous as some of the other cancers, but after having to deal with a close relative just go through this and the aftermath, I wouldn't wish it on pretty much anyone.
