Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 388 | Hi Lani - The waiting is painful, but in my mind, I am hoping they are not finding ANY cancer, thus the delays! That is our sincerest hope for you. Besides, we have to meet at one of those Mexican restaurants in Gainesville one of these days, when Dick and you are up there at the same time! So KEEP THE FAITH, show your body who is BOSS, and we await your news. Hugs....Jane
P.S. Hate to be a dummy here, but what is CNA school? Maybe we will meet him someday too.
