Bitcoin transaction with 0.0001 BTC fee not getting confirmed? [duplicate]

Question

And the transaction still has not been confirmed. I attached 0.0001 BTC transaction fee.

Did I lose the money? Can I do something to speed up the confirmation of the transaction?

looks to me like it says your transaction will take up to 26 hours and that your transaction fee was low — Mark S., Commented Nov 19, 2013 at 5:31
@MarkS. Is it possible to double spend it with an added fee? I'm using bitcoin-qt on mac. — SChang, Commented Nov 19, 2013 at 6:36
I don't think any standard wallet will let you double-spend... you would have to hack the transaction yourself. And even then it probably wouldn't work unless you mined the block yourself. — RentFree, Commented Nov 20, 2013 at 15:51

There is a time limit for transmission by most clients. I think Bitcoin-qt used 3 days. After that you can spend it again
