I read your post on hypothyroid mom’s facebook page. I had a few questions on your experience. Your thyroid tests also came back normal? Even while having hashimoto’s? My tests come back normal but I feel so run down. I’ve had hyporoidism since I was 9 or so. I’ve been on synthroid all my life. My hair is so thin now. Did you go to an endocrinologist to be diagnosed?

Yes mine were “normal” but I still felt awful. I did finally find a good specialist, an endocrinologist, who checked for antithyroid globulins (sign of hashimotos) and I tested positive. Since then I have done a lot of research and kept trying to find the balance that works for me….that keeps me feeling better…Not just satisfying their lab numbers

Hi there! I saw your post on Hypothyroid Mom’s blog and it seemed timely – I am a writer with Everyday Health working on an article about hypothyroid and depression. I wondered if you would be willing to talk to me so we can explore that link between depression and hypothyroid a bit more, for the article? We could include a link to your blog or mention your books as well. I think your story would be inspiring to our readers and it’s complicated enough to be resonant for a lot of people – is depression a symptom? is it caused by the frustration and distress of trying to cope with hypothyroid and everyone’s (including doctors’) odd comments? Let me know! Hoping you would like to talk! Blessings – Madeline Vann, madeline.vann@gmail.com

Hello, read your article on whether Church should provide childcare for ALL events. We couldn’t agree more. My wife & I oversee our church’s marriage ministry and we are amazed at the people who complain if we don’t provide babysitting for all our events. When we were raising our kids way back in the 1990s we simply had a babysitter we hired or another couple with whom we coopted. The kids loved seeing their friends and we got out for a date or whatever. Seems like so many EXPECT the church to provide everything in this regard. My wife & I believe couples need to have “skin in the game” for the things they invest in their marriages. We usually charge a small fee for classes or a small group gathering. This helps them see that they need to invest financially to ensure they don’t begin to expect church to give them what is more than warranted. That is called sacrifice.
Also, great insight about having small events during church service times. 🙂

You are right on David! And if you sacrifice for something you’ll be more likely to show up and to participate! Great points
