Just wanted to thank all you guys for sending your prayers my way. I just hope and pray we can all have good results, but get saddened when we don't. My heart goes out to all of you who are having trouble again. I will never stop praying for you and I know others won't either. Thanks again - now I can breathe. I'm such a wimp at scan times  julieann
