Barb,
I agree completely with Flori, your heart will tell you when it is time to let go. Your heart knows that it is NOT that time yet. There are many more options, and you need a Dr. that will help you find them.

Sounds like you are on the right track in terms of securing the professional assistance that you deserve. Help is waiting in the wings so gather hope from the knowledge that there ARE more options out there. You and your support team will find them.

Please keep us posted...we are rooting for you.

Love...Lori
