My friends call me the "Weird Al of ThyCa" if that gives you any idea of what you are in for!

Most of my songs are humorous, some are bittersweet. But they all express what it means to live with thyroid cancer.

Humor is a universal language. Once people have a good laugh at the songs, then they begin to understand what thyca patients go through. My intention is to educate and entertain through these songs. Pass 'em on!

Here they are, in alphabetical order:

Craving Dawn 'Til Midnight
What Patsy Cline would be singing if she were hypo!

I go on craving, dawn 'til midnight
I almost can't fight these dietary blues
I'm always craving, dawn 'til midnight
Iodized foods!

Don't I Hate These Diet Rules
Being on the low-iodine diet is enough to make even Crystal Gayle's brown eyes blue!

Don't know when I've been so blue
Don't know how I'll make it through
With no iodized food
And don't I hate these diet rules...

Hotel Isolation
Travel back with me, to the summer of '76. The Eagles are playing on the radio.
Remember the haunting melody of this timeless epic...


On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair...

Hypo Trails To You
Ride with me now, along that dusty trail back in time. Back to the days of Dale and Trigger and Roy.

Hypo trails to you
Until you reach the end
Hypo trails to you
Keep sliding until then!

Lazy
If Patsy Cline were hypo, she'd be singing this song...

Lazy
I'm lazy from being so hypo
I'm lazy
Lazy and feelin' so blue...

My God, I'm A Hypo Boy!
Remember how John Denver made the world seem so simple? Join me now in singing this perky song...

Well life on the couch is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old hypo boy like me can't hack
It's late to rise and early in the sack
My God, I'm a hypo boy!

Oh Babe, I Hate To Glow
Remember the beautiful harmonies of Peter, Paul and Mary?

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to glow
I'm standing here outside the door
With "Danger: Radiation!" on the sign...

Oh, My Rear, My Big Fat Rear
Imagine Julie Andrews and the Von Trapp Family Singers going hypothyroid…

Oh, my rear, my big fat rear
Hey, this hypo isn't fun...

Scarry, Scarry Night

Scarry, scarry night
Patient's mood is blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
And wear your sunscreen
on your tender throat...

Send Us A Song, You're The Cheerleader
This song is about the ThyCa listserv, an on-line support group. Finding that group made a huge difference in my life after my diagnosis.

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd logs in
There's an old friend on the list tonight
Makin' light of how hypo he's been...

The Ballad Of Hypo Linn
Think Beverly Hillbillies!

Now listen to a story 'bout a girl named Linn
Poor hypo dear, had her hand upon her chin!

Sing this one to the tune of "The Twelve Days Of Christmas". A-one and a-two....

In the first week of hypo hell
my symptoms gave to me
the need for a really great nap!

Wasting Away Again In Hypothyroid Hell
In the style of Jimmy Buffet

Wastin' away again in hypothyroid hell
Searchin' for my non-iodized salt
Some people claim that it is all in my brain
But I know it's hypo hell's fault

You My Thyroid Pills
To the tune of "Brown Eyed Girl"

Can't wait to swallow
Pills with a long name
