Today, Rosie had a right hemithyroidectomy. She has had a thyroid nodule for 6 years, but it’s grown enough this year that is was causing hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, and neck discomfort. The nodule was wrapped onto her trachea, so there was a lot of pressure. She was nervous for her first surgery, but the procedure went well and she is starting her recovery. #firstsurgery #hemithyroidectomy (at Intermountain Utah Valley Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/CISFVsVhDHN/?igshid=10do2jqpr8jff
