Hi, this is Lily DeHoya Sanderson, and you're listening to Choosing Glory.

I have some of my people that I could thank, and I know I will never be comprehensive in my

public thanks. I wish I could be. There are so many people who have been kind and supportive

and angels, and I know there are people who would do a lot more if I were organized enough to know

how good help. But, I mean, people have been incredibly kind. And I am going to mention just a few. There are so many of you whose names I don't

even know who have done kind things for me that have touched me and my children deeply,

anonymous gifts that have shown so much thoughtfulness and tenderness in many notes, letters, messages,

all of those things have meant so much.

And I know that I've been sustained by the prayers of so many of you,

and many of you have put me on temporal rolls.

I can't imagine what things would be like without that extra help and

support that has been petitioned for on my behalf. I'm grateful to all of you. I really appreciate

all of you podcast listeners. It has been such a blessing for me to have a way that I felt like I could

make a small contribution to the kingdom to Zion in this time,

even during these times where I felt so incapacitated and continue to limp along.

I will say I'm very grateful that even though the doctor that I had at the time,

and I could not believe this, but he dumped me.

About six months after I lost Chris when the big thyroid crash started, and he just was concerned about moving forward with thyroid dosing. And a miracle happened. Caitlin put the word out

on Facebook to her friends, asking for a recommendation I got one. I got in much earlier than I

should have been able to because she was really backed up. But functional medicine doctor here in

Salt Lake that I've been working with now for a little over a year and a half has been willing to

work fairly aggressively in this area and it's starting to make a difference.
