Hi everyone! 

Thank you so much for all your love and support throughout this process. I'm happy to share that it seems like my surgery was successful. I'm recovering pretty well and feeling so much better already. 

I have appointments with the surgeon and specialist at the end of this week. I'll keep you updated on next steps. 

Thank you again for all your kind words and donations. It's been a jarring month, but I'm so glad to know there are so many people who care. 

Warmly,
Rachel

P.S. Thyroids are shaped like butterflies, so butterflies now have a special place in my heart. <3
