Melissa- Stay Positive! I know that it is depressing to see and hear that others are having this surgery and you have to wait. I'm in your shoes however my blood count is very high. I go the the specialist tomorrow 3/22 to see why it is so high. My primary doctor doesn't know why it is so high because I have no systoms. I was greatful to my doctor Dr. K at BTC in Col, Oh for not going ahead with the surgery because anything could of happened. My mom thinks that this is happening because maybe I shouldn't have this surgery. I don't believe that, it took a long time for me to decide that this was the step that I should take and I know that God is watching over me and he wants all to be fine so that when I do have the surgery I will pull through with flying colors. I believe that is what he is doing for you too. I know how hard it it to wait, however it is for the best. You hear of all sorts of problems with people here on the site and you really feel for them. Hang in there your day is coming as mine will. If you ever need to talk let me know, send me an email or you can call me at 513-554-1155. You take care and keep smiling :) All will work out for the best! Teresa

Melissa-Good luck. Only 7 more days for us. This is all I can think about. I am very nervous. I will be thinking about you and all who have the dame date. Got to keep my mind occupied.

Missy - chin up sweetie! I know all of this is very scary and disappointing, but at least they did all these test pre-op so you didn't get into a life-threatening situation in surgery. You have a HUGE group of people praying for you and thinking of you. Keep the faith and keep us posted!
