    Hope IS A Good Thing :)
    That's good, Julie

    I can't wait to hear what the gameplan will be.

    So, 2 days puts us on New Year's Eve - what's the odds of getting an answer on that day, LOL :)

    I hope they do get a hold of you, but if they are still sipping their "eggnog" well then enjoy the holiday and Happy New Year 2010!

    I'm going Jan 11
    What liver specialist did you see? I am seeing Yuman Fong. I am bummed that this first meeting won't be more than the meet and greet and hand off my scans. I am travelling from chicago and was hoping to send scans earlier so pathology adn radiology could weigh in and have a suggested plan when I got there.

    Good luck to you Julie

    Have you told them of your situation and how far you are traveling? I would think they could make your visit more informative for you. You can FedEx the scans and talk on the phone otherwise.

    Just a thought.
