Hope is yours to hang to as long as you wish....don't let it stop you though from moving forward. As you get stronger, more confident and cultivate that life of your own continuing to stand might not be as easy. If you stand long enough you will probably start to wonder why and question if your doing the right thing. Early on it is much easier to say you won't file and most folks on the site would tell you whether you are D or not the emotions you have to process are still the same.....having a piece of paper in your hand won't change it.
