I'm sorry about your husband ConnieT. Sounds soo stressful and I hope you are taking care of yourself through all of this.

ChristineB thank you for the warm welcome. I do feel like there's tons of support here so that is helpful. I'll be back on here when I get more information. This waiting stuff is for the birds!!!
