Overboard by Chip Dunham for July 05, 2014

Boy! That’s what I need! :)

Does anyone take Synthroid? Dr. wants to put me on it, says I have Hashimoto’s but the side effects scare me. I don’t like to take any medicine.

I watch commercials for certain medicines and when they read off the possible side effects I always think that I would rather just have the condition instead of the possible cure.

The RAF is on full alert.

Good morning Crew!

Good Morning Crew,Blast away Jonas, Nate will just load up again….Have a GREAT DAY MATIE’S

Yesterday: a bunch of Hershey Huggs, lots of Cheeto Puffs and half a container of banana split ice cream and I feel wonderful. THREE planes now? Where’s the factory.

From yesterday @Dogday88

I good friend of mine refused to use a choke collar to stop her dog from breaking his leash and running off. She wished she had after he broke his leash and got killed by a trash tuck.

My lovely samoyed took synthroid for years. Without it, she was a miserable couch potato. This is my first post, although I have lurked for years. Thank you for all the fun I’ve had. I love the doggy photos.

Where were they when I quit smoking?

@2old – been on thyroid replacement for over 20 years now, I’d be glad to answer any questions/concerns you might have.

“people” ? Now the mice are “people”, Chip?

Thanks everyone for your advice. I have Celiac disease and Hashimoto’s goes hand in hand with that. I’m tired of feeling tired all the time too. And lately I keep gaining weight. My thryoid test came back at 7.9, not a lot, but Dr. wants to nip this in the bud, so to speak. Thanks again!

These comments, as serious and important as they are.. Are deeply depressing. I do come to the comics for joyful relief and here for related comments and witty banter. I am sure there are plenty of outlets for all sorts of ailments and medical advice as well as grief counselling for traumatic dealings and advice on owning a pet. I do not wish to anger anyone here.. I understand the severity of these things. But I can’t be the only one that just wants a light escape to laugh and smile without all the harsh reality crashing in around my small moment of joy. Thanks.
