Yes it does. I prefer afternoon there..it's slower.
Yeah, Tom, what is that. Was afraid to ask, but I'll just second Fran's question.
Why the butterfly in my neck? The thyroid gland kind of looks like a little butterfly as it sits on your larynx. The butterfly is also the symbol of thyroid cancer survivors as well (no, I dont have cancer, but I like the transformational inspiration associated with the butterfly).
January is Thyroid Awareness Month, and thyroid patient and talented artist Allyson Jones Averell of New Jersey was looking for a way to commemorate the month with her art.
The result? Ally did this extraordinary facepainting on herself, featuring a butterfly - a common symbol used to signify the thyroid gland -- along with gladiolus flowers. Ally chose the gladiolus because this flower stands for "strength of character."

My mom had an over active thyroid. Had surgery to fix it and then had to take meds.
