Brian and I are back with an update on his Thyroid Cancer journey. Sharing the details of the surgery, hospital stay, and early recovery. We filmed this when he was 10 days post-op, so we were through the worst of the recovery but he still had a lot of healing to do. As shared in the video, we are both positive people who like to be optimistic, so please don’t take our cheerful attitude as this was “no big deal”. It was very much a big deal, that said everything did go well and we are SO thankful for as smooth of a recovery as possible for Brian!
We are so grateful to all of you for the love, prayers, and support both here and on Instagram. Sharing our story has been such a vulnerable experience but it has also been amazing to truly feel ourselves being lifted up through all of you. Forever thankful!

I just love how inspirational you guys are sharing your story. ❤️ “beautiful in real life- no makeup needed.” Okay, husband of the year!
Thank you! And seriously I don’t deserve him! 😭😍
I hope you both are doing good now,
I got diagnosised as MTC in my lymp nodes, so I wanted to check what type of Cancer Brian had
So glad your doing well! Continued prayers for you and your family!
Thank you so much!
My voice is gone. Surgeon took the right vocal chord nerve.
I’m so sorry. Praying for complete healing in Jesus name! Anything is possible with God. ❤
Hey there new SUBSCRIBER coming from FB. I'm sorry for everything that's happening.. you both are strong and I can't even imagine the process ..
Thank you! ❤️
You guys are such a beautiful couple. I’m so happy to see he’s doing well! Continuing to pray for you on your journey ahead.
Thank you! That means so much to us! ❤️
Glad everything went well with Brian's surgery. Was hoping you would have a clip of when Brian returned home and seeing your kids reaction to seeing him again. Wishing you both the best in Brian's recovery journey. How long will it be before he can return to work?
That would've been a great idea! The girls were very excited to see me. Avery made me a special card to make me feel better 🥰
With still working from home I was able to return to work 2.5 weeks after my surgery. If I wasn't work from home it probably would've been at least 3 weeks.
Thanks for sharing your story... I will need to have surgery too. And my whole thyroid will be removed also lymbnodes. Im scared
Hi Johnny - it is scary but you will get through it! If you have any questions about Brian’s experience I know he’d be happy to chat, his IG is @brianlogen. Best wishes to you!
I was diagnosed too oct of 2016, i just did rai last year. Remnant tissue is still there but we gonna monitor as rai still doing its job. I started TH-cam too but never share I’m going through .. you’re so strong!
Thank you for sharing with us - how was the RAI process for you? We’re glad you’re here! ❤️
@@KatieLogen didnt feel any side effects, except i felt hungry all the time. Not sure if its connected🤣 the worst part was sleeping alone and need to 10ft away from your loved ones..
That’s great! And I can imagine - we are hoping to not have to go that path but we shall see!
@@KatieLogen he’ll be fine😁 He’ll get through it.
Thank you! 🙏🏼
Did you ever have bloodwork done to see if you had thyroid problems before you were diagnosed?
Yes, he did before and after the cancer was found. All bloodwork was completely normal!
Thank god you are doing great! What were you symptoms before the surgery. We’re you deficient any vitamins like D and b12 ? Any weight gain before surgery?
Thank you! Not sure on possible deficiencies… no notable symptoms besides the swollen lymph node where the cancer was originally detected.
How long before returning to work ?
@@stephenlan5450 he worked remotely at the time so went back about 2.5 weeks after surgery. If he had to go in person I’d imagine he would have taken more time off.
Did you have Radioactive Iodine ?
No. The side effects and life long risks are severe. But each case has its own nuance. Research holistic therapies - sending you well wishes!
