    Oh pinkflutterby :(
    Sending thoughts of peace and comfort to you, I hope it's just because it's too hard to go over on the phone, maybe doc wants to use pictures or the magic eraser board, mine loves to draw for me. Praying for news that you can handle, stay strong sister, and keep us posted.
    Big Big Hugz,

    Who Wouldn't Be Worried?
    I'm so sorry you have to play the waiting game. It's the worst! I know it's not easy, but just try to remain calm. Until you know exactly what you are dealing with, it's not worth worrying about. Though that's much easier said than done!

    Hang in there. No matter what it is your doctor wants to talk to you about, you can handle it! You are a strong woman and have already come so far!

    I'll be praying for peace and calm for you! :)

    Blessings,

    I bet she just wants to go
    I bet she just wants to go over it in person because she has a lot to say, or, maybe because she hasn't seen you in awhile? Try to stay calm Libby and know that I am praying for you.

    Awww, Libby...
    I'd be scared & worried, too. Who amongst us wouldn't be? Not one, I think.

    There COULD be many other reasons your doctor requested tomorrow's appointment - different than what you fear. As Kari has already offered. So, that's what I'll HOPE for...

    January has been a horrific month for this group. Tomorrow is February 1st - Kari was already on my calendar; now, I've added you, too. Hoping the date being a "first" will bring you both some much needed good - no great! - luck. Hoping for good news, better news.

    Sending cyberhugs, while you wait...

    Kind regards, Susan

    Oh, Pink, hopefully your doctor just wants to explain things
    in detail and in person. Waiting is the pits though, but I'm sending you every ounce of positive energy I have for great results. Hopefully you'll be able to get there inspite of the bad weather headed across the country.

    We're all with you.

    You are always so positive
    You are always so positive and uplifting to everyone on this board Libby, and, now you need to turn that uplifting and positive attitude towards yourself.

    You have had a crappy day, but, let's think positive. It will get better!!!

    Let's not read too much into this
    What kind of blood work did you have done, Libby? Of course, you're worried and I will worry and fret along with you. She must want to explain something . . . .

    Libby....
    I'm always told "don't borrow trouble." But I worry about things also. Boy, do I worry!

    First of all, I hope February is much better for you...for all of us. Also hoping that the storm, especially the freezing rain holds off or misses you completely.

    Praying for things to be fine tomorrow and that the results of your bloodwork are also fine. I believe that you will have many pink sisters accompanying you for your onc visit.

    Hugs,
    CR
