My wife became aware of a lump in her throat. Three months later 3 days before Christmas Day the surgeons removed her thyroid (Anna is home recovering well) The first question to ourselves was what does a thyroid even do? We came across BritishThyroidFoundation which is a charity funded organisation that provides a lot of information and support. Anna wanted people to be more aware of their thyroid because we are always told to check our bodies for many things but the thyroid is never mentioned. 

The challenge I have set myself is without  doubt the hardest thing I could do. Holidays, birthdays, sunny afternoons at a bbq ... Christmas!! See my point ... Help me by helping BTF. Thank you x
