Yes, I've had two-one short one and a 35 min call yesterday. My SR was upbeat and said that the DIV is really starting to work together much better now! He did say that some SRs were not able to call before because they were recovering from wisdom teeth removal, so maybe that's what's going one with yours. I'm sorry, I hate to even write that I got those calls, because I know how you must feel and the "no news is good news thing" just doesn't help does it? That's what I hear people say constantly though, that if something was wrong we would get a phone call. I'm praying you do get that call soon!!

We should be getting Sundays letters soon. Hopefully you get a letter from him. He may have had his wisdom teeth out. I know my son has been sick. If there were something wrong you would have received a call. I know their div is doing well.

I'm glad he's doing okay and that it was his wisdom teeth removal that kept him from being able to call. You'll get a call soon, but those three letters must help so much!! Did he sound good in his letters?
