day 2 of diet

today is my second day on this LID. i bought some groceries saturday to help with the foods i can eat, but the foods are really boring to say the least. AND IM  HUNGRY!  and i have another week and a half left of this til i have my treatment that is. i see my new dr on the 13th the nuclear dr to meet her and ask her questions about stuff Mark will be going with me seems like hes been wanting to go with me i never thought he would. he wants to take me to  my prescan dose and scan i will first see dr then the following week get a pill of RAI for the prescan and the next day have the prescan then 3 days after that get my treatment, and Mark says he wants to go to all of im surprised hes afraid ill be too tired to drive myself. since im already feeling tired even before the diet. He'll be missing some work a few hrs at most if i can make things for the afternoon or miss a few hrs in the AM and then go to work after it.
 i dont know if this is a symptom but my hands get to feeling numb and seems like they feel numb for no reason like if u would to sleep on them, its almost like my potassium is getting low but i still take my potassium pills im suppose to take. i know feeling cold and tired and not feeling like doing anything are all symptoms of hypothyroid. today i made some homemade french dressing so maybe ill have a salad later, and some fruit. Fruit is about the only thing that taste good i love certain fruits i bought some frozen to make some smoothies i can eat, but dont want to use them all up the first week. cant wait til this is over with well for 6 months til they check me then to see if i need to do it again. I know God is in control and there is a lesson in all this but its hard to be optimistic about it all, and not ask " why me" and not be scared about all this thats going on.  Cancer is a scary word to hear and to have any kind of cancer not just the ones that could kill you but ALL OF THEM. i still dont think Mark knows how i feel afraid about this im trying to be strong and not fall apart on him. sometimes i just need a hug that is long and tight telling me he will be there for me anytime. and im not the type to ask for help never was but always wants to help other people more. so i guess ill keep on doing what i have been doing trying to clean the house as much as i can without overdoing myself and making me to tired and trust the Lord in all this, Marks favorite verse keeps coming to mind and now i see why he always would say it when he cancer never thought cancer would would hit us twice in our 15 yrs of marriage only 11 yrs apart.......

Isaiah 41:10  Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
