Hehe. 
Sorry that you’ve had so much to deal with in a single week, ThelmaLou. Will be thinking good thoughts for you at your appointment on Tuesday, and I’m glad to see the folks of the SD gathering around to support you. We have some really good people here.
Oh, I want to send some of those, too, OK?
Good luck on Tuesday.
Well, shoot. I’m sorry you have to wait to get your answer.
Hoping for good news from ThelmaLou…
Fingers crossed here, too.
Biopsy negative! No cancer! Praise the Lord and pass the tequila! 
Thank you all so much for your support-- you guys are the best! I’m emotionally drained. Since I took a xanax before I went, alcohol is out, so the next best cure is Mexican food.
Wow, great news, yay! What a relief, huh?
Enjoy your dinner.
Congratulations! 
I’m giddy. I had pretty much convinced myself the news would be bad. I’ve had so much bad news recently (not all of which have I reported here.) I wish you all could join me for cheese enchiladas at my local cafe. Maybe I’ll even sleep tonight.
Happy dance
Yay! Quesadillas for all!
PHHOOOOOOOOO
The sound of bated breath being let out. So happy to hear it!
Glad to hear it TL!!
So happy! Good news at last!!
Woohoo!!
If it wasn’t for this business of being a thousand or so miles away, my wife and I would be right there. Hope you enjoy your celebratory meal!
I’m concluding my evening’s celebration by watching (for the eighth time this year) All the President’s Men. That movie makes me very happy and compounds my current jubilant and grateful state of mind.
Many thanks for the long distance warm fuzzies.
Glad to hear the good news.
Yay! Very glad to hear it!
Yay! Awesome news! I’m there in spirit - I need to re-watch that movie!
I think I may start a thread on the old-fashioned, pavement-pounding, phone-calling, fact-checking, SOURCE-checking, note taking kind of journalism that you see in ATPM-- does it still go on? Or has the 24/7 news cycle meant that media outlets just have to go with whatever they have or be scooped by some 12-year old’s YouTube video of some event. I used to love Lou Grant, too, and you saw the same kind of careful, responsible reporting there-- and multiple sources had to confirm something before it was printed. I don’t think the major media outlets report “fake news” as our fearful leader has accused, but I also think rigor has gone out of journalism. (I know grammar has departed.) Okay. I’m going to start a thread on that…
Jason Robards really kicks ass in that movie.
