On my FIRST Birthday I got Measles, Mumps and Rubella Vaccine

What an idea... On Wednesday, February 6, 1952 I got my triple vaccine: Measles, Mumps and Rubella!

At least for my Diphtheria and Whooping Cough + Tetanus vaccine they waited till two days after my 9th Birthday!

But we all are fortunate for having received those vaccines!

My Baptism on Tuesday, February 6, 1951

 Just like Pieter, I too got baptized the very day I was born!

My full name was Maria Anna Martha but when I became a United States Citizen and got my FIRST passport it came back without Anna Maria...

My Godmother was my Maternal Grandmother Anna 

My Godfather was my Paternal Grandfather Martinus

My 1st Holy Communion was on Thursday, Ascention Day, May 15, 1958

My Confirmation (Vormsel in Dutch) was on Tuesday, July 5, 1960

My Formal Renewal of Baptismal Promises was on Sunday, July 21, 1963

At age 16, I was prescribed Thyranon for Hypothyroidism

Being a woman never has been easy for me...

On my Angel sister's Birthday, January 11, 1967, I got a prescription of Thyranon, before my 16th Birthday.

That in order to regulate my too low Basal Metabolic Rate and my too short cycles...

This Thyranon hormone got slowly reduced and stopped in 1969.

I felt less cold and had a far better cycle.

During a laparoscopic surgery my gynecologist found out that my uterus was on the small side.

Thyranon hormone was a brand of animal thyroid hormone powder.

It was later in 1987 removed from the market...

Whether a dose was sufficient was checked on the basis of complaints and metabolism (heart rate, metabolism).

January 25 of 2010 I had this nuclear test done for checking my thyroids

Iodine – 123 (I – 123) sodium iodine in capsules or liquid form. I had to drink it...

It are radioactive isotopes of iodine used in the field of nuclear medicine for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, paraticularly for evaluating thyroid function.
