Get mine in the morning and am so thankful that I still can! So grateful that my doctor agrees with the necessity to balance the risks based on my pathology. Hey, I'd be in the pill line in a heart beat!!!!! Call me when you hear the news! We could have a Country Wide Celebration and all take the pill(s) at the same time, saying goodbye to "hook ups"! I want to have these conversations forever.......
Much love to each and everyone! ma
