Joshua Tree is an odd yet magical place.

Months after my first bouldering experience with @dominicleeder I got to use what I learned at Joshua Tree. Climbed way higher than expected and didn’t die. So that’s good! #bouldering #joshuatree #joshuatreenationalpark

December 2015 - this image was posted to Instagram and then reposted by a page with over a million followers and within minutes I was flooded with DMs from doctors and nurses telling me to get my thyroid checked. Initially I was like “How rude!” Then I took a second look at my neck and holy hell, there it was! A giant ball where my thin, long neck used to be. Thank god for social media?

I took down this image and immediately made an appointment with my doctor. The internet was right. My thyroid shouldn’t have looked like this.

I have goiters. Multiple, benign nodules all over my thyroid. And after 5 years of appointments with endocrinologists, naturopaths, alternative medicine doctors, regulars doctors and after multiple ultrasounds, biopsies and MRIs...I’ve decided to have a thyroidectomy. In two weeks my entire thyroid will be removed. The goiters keep growing and while I’ve become an expert at angles and photoshopping my enlarged neck, I have to do this. The bigger they get the more risky the surgery becomes and you don’t want this surgery to get risky because your vocal chords are involved. So I’m doing it. These suckers won’t shrink or disappear otherwise and can eventually make it hard for me to swallow or worst yet, become cancerous.

So if you’ve read this far, thanks for listening. And if you’ve had a thyroidectomy & have encouraging things to say please leave a comment about it. Would love to hear what you’re experience was like.

Finally shout out to the doctors and nurses on here who gave me a much needed heads up. Bye, bye thyroid. ❤️ PS - I’ll be fine! Just wanted to share so when I suddenly have a scar on my neck you don’t think I got into a knife fight.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful mamas, caretakers and mom figures out there and a special shout out to the two most special moms in my life: My stunning mom @jovatggallusc, who’s the most generous, selfless, nurturing, supportive mom in the entire world. She will do and has done everything and anything for her children, she is #momgoals. And to my beautiful sister @jolees86 who has given me two of the cutest nephews on the planet and is clearly on our mom’s path of being the greatest mom ever. She’s loving and has more patience than I could dream of! Love you mom & Jojo! Can’t wait to hug and kiss you both! #happymothersday
