Went up and worked on the Supra this morning, it took some of my blood but I got the oil drain hose replaced. gonna be atleast a week before I get it home since Bill is swamped
Good news, I should be bringing my Supra home in the next few days since I just got a very nice gift from my dad. Gotta take off my turbo tomorrow morning and rebuild my oil drain line and replace the line and put on a heat shield sleeve since it looks like I melted the rubber in the line...
I'm just grateful to be finally able to get a job and support me and my wife again. Not sure about the enhanced CT, the removed the whole thyroid gland and tumor, hence me finding out the results from the testing on the actual tumor and thyroid today.
Found out earlier today that the tumor was Folicular Carcinoma. Translation, it was cancer. They removed my whole thyroid but I will be undergoing radioactive iodine treatment shortly to make sure they got all the thyroid and cancer cells.

Thank you all for your kind words. Here's what I look like right now (bandage still on). Tomorrow I get to remove my bandage and count my stitches since my surgical team didn't give me any specifics about how big the tumor was or how many stitches I got.
So I just got out of the hospital. My surgery went well. They removed my thyroid completely and the tumor. I get to see how many stitches I got tomorrow when I remove my bandage. My throat really hurts, especially when I swallow. But I am able to talk. I can't move my head much though.
