Pj.........I think we all agree that waiting for results is the worst thing possible because we tend to imagine the worst. After hearing the plan of attack things do seem to get better although there may still be significate anxiety. That is pretty normal. Hope for the best! Sending postive thoughts your way.....keep us posted. SIncerely, Donna
