Oh Shakti!!!!!!!!!!!!! I read your post and just started crying.... I soooooo feel for you!!!!!! You KNOW I do. Words are failing me. I so wish I could teleport to where you are and just be there for you and hold you. For real. In real life. I hardly know what to say.

It will happen, but the rug being pulled out when you've worked so very very hard for this and hit so many roadblocks... there probably isn't even a word that quite captures it (though crestfallen is a very good one!)... the true depth of it in the palpable sense. Some might read this and think I'm being negative, but that's not at all the case. Just want you to know that I truly do feel your pain, and if there's ANYTHING I can do to help ease it, you know I will. Please feel completely free to PM me, ok?

(I also need to say that I think it is really stinky of them to clearly not have thought this through very well. If she feels she needed to make the decision not to take new, fine, but she should make it and THEN not make appointments! Not after! Good grief.)
