Today marks 100 days in PGN

Can't believe I am saying that. But after reading Dad's post it give me strength and courage to hang in there. I know there are so many others with me and with everyone on these forums I can get through. Thank you for your support.

Christine

Christine - I feel for you - I really do! We accepted our referral in mid-November, had and I-72 which delayed our pre-approval and have been KO'd from PGN twice. We'll get there - I promise!!

YOu have been in WAYYY too long. I am praying for an OUT for you today or tomorrow.

Although I have not been in nearly as long as you, I am starting to relate to that special stress caused by KO's...then long waits to hear something.

I agree, you have been in way to long. I haven't been very active lately, but I try to keep up on everyone's progress and I was really hoping to see the "OUT" post from you. I will continue to keep your family in our prayers and hope that you get that call very very soon.

Christine,

I am truly feeling your pain, we entered PGN on the same day. I too get inspiration from the posts here, but some days are harder than others. Hopefully we'll both hear some good news this week and perhaps we can meet in GC! Hang in there!
