Well, tomorrow I will be having someone slit my throat. And I’ll have to pay over a thousand bucks to have him do it. Let me explain.

I had a lump on the left side of my neck that I needed to have checked by an ENT. They did an MRI on my neck, and it turned out to be just some fatty tissue- Nothing serious, right?

Then I get a call from the ENT himself to set up another appointment with him. I was a little puzzled, but I went to see him. He had shown me the MRI before, but he only focused on the fatty tissue. Thank God for the radiologist! He had point out to the doctor another more ominous object below the spot that previously had our interest. There was a three-centimeter nodule on my thyroid gland coming straight down and behind my trachea! The doctor arranged for a biopsy to be done at another office. They were going to use ultra-sound to guide another radiologist to do this job, but he didn't feel comfortable with the nodule’s location near some major arteries and veins. So the ENT did the biopsy in his office- without the ultra-sound equipment. The results, however came back “diagnostically indeterminate”.

So here we are in the present. The only way to do a proper biopsy is to remove the nodule and then test it. And so, this is where the throat being slit comes in. So tomorrow, sometime after eight o’clock, I’ll be having surgery.

I actually feel unusually calm about the whole ordeal. However, if any of you ear readers wish to remember me in your prayers, I would deeply appreciate it.

That’s all for now. May God richly bless you all!
