7 months in PGN today. I'm ready to leave...really I am!!!
OK...I thought I would try my own boo hoo thread too. But with my luck, like my Forum pal Laurie (Gatos), everyone who responds to my thread will get "the call". And I'll still be sitting here in Shawshank. Time to start tunneling!!!
These days I swing back and forth between "mad Laura" who stomps around the house having "why me" tantrums, and "sad Laura"...a beer commercial would make her cry. I am going to be a wreck during the superbowl...goooooooo Colts!!!  DH is ready to call the boys in the white coats. I sure hope they're cute! But seriously, I wouldn't wish this pain on anyone. Being separated from Sabrina is like having my heart ripped out. Every single day. I know you guys can relate. No matter where you are in your journey. Newbie...long-timer...or somewhere in-between. Praying for good news for all of us very soon!!!  p.s. Attached is the picture that is my latest screen saver. I LOVE this picture. Anyone who is debating about visiting....GO! The pain is truly worth the pleasure!!!! p.s.s. Trek on! From a closet sci-fi geek!!    p.s.s.s Just wanted to add -- the picture is from the pool at the Grand Tikal. Feel free to PM me if you ever want feedback on this hotel!

Awwww Laura I LOVE the picture...how precious. I just don't understand why people like you, a very good person, has to go through this. I know nothing I can say can fix the PGN issue or your breaking heart but know I think about you every day and pray each day it's your OUT day. {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}

Oh Laura, you deserve to be upset. Everytimg I see your timeline I want to scream "let sweet Sabrina come home". You have waited far too long and trust me, you deserve only the cutest white coats to come pick you up.
 I am saying lost of prayers that the CALL comes soon.

7 months is too long.
Wonderful picture! Looks like my dh and baby poolside from a few days ago.
Thinking about your case getting out really soon! And ditto on the visit. And ditto on Trek (and our latest: Battlestar Gallactica). Best,

I am so sorry Laura. It just isn't fair. If there was a rhyme or reason, we could all feel better, but there isn't. I will pray for you tonight. I hope you hear the news soon.
Love the picture. Sabrina is a beautiful baby!

Everyone is rooting you on. I get online each day hoping to see your post. I don't remember who said it, but they were right- your spirit and attitude are amazing. Praying your OUT soon from a not-so-closet sci-fi geek.
What an amazing picture!
