[QUOTE="TheWalrus, post: 677620, member: 19905"] Thoughts are with you, TL. I know how you feel. Once your hopes have been raised so.many.times - "This is it, they are finally over the hurdle" - only to have the bottom fall out AGAIN is draining. It drains the hope you want to have. I try to go into those situations, where you *think* or *are being told* things are going great, without positive OR negative expectations - just realistic ones. I go in with a guarded heart, so I don't get disappointed or upset if (when) things aren't what I've been lead to believe. I basically keep myself in "neutral" as far as emotions and expectations until I see what there is to see. I pray for the best and that, at least at this moment, things are what they seem and it is a positive visit. [/QUOTE]
