Re: Need Advice - Scanxiety
Thank you lovely ladies for your kind words, it really does help to know I am not alone in all of this! I had a nice surprise, my daughter came home from college to spend the weekend with us! This has helped to keep my mind off the scans.
Annette - I guess we are scan buddies! I'll keep my fingers crossed for the both of us! Best of luck to us!
