Janie, I'm sorry to hear that it has come down to this for you but thankful that you have taken what has to be a very difficult step. You have struggled and tried everything. I so was thrilled awhile back when you seemed to have found the answer for you. I know this isn't the answer that you wanted. You really must have so much anger that it has come to this. It must be hard to read about others who have in some way breezed through the potential complications. I know I would be very angry not at anyone, just the situation. Take care Janie. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers over the next few weeks and my thoughts will turn towards you on September 6. I hope you will have someone let us know how things went. You are part of this family and I do think you have a lot to offer this forum. It is important that you and others like you educate all of us here and all that enter these doors. Every story and life is important here....
