Thankgod,its been a long two weeks.Very nervous ,worried,thinking things like tomorrow may change the course of my life.
I've had a cry this morning daft I know ,waited till everyone had gone ,just me and the dog.I keep thinking its taken 32 years to reach a point where life is no longer a financial struggle ,2 years to go on our mortgage and now this..
Just hope I come away with answers tomorrow.
Glad I found this place its been good reading others experiances and given me loads of info.
Thanks everyone.

Fingers crossed that the outcome is a positive one for you. I know it’s easier said than done👍
Good luck for tomorrow’s appointment, Polly. Easier said than done, but try to find something to distract you today. Also, don’t be disappointed if tomorrow’s appointment leads to another appointment and another one. Each will get you closer to having an answer, but it may not be an immediate one. Don’t forget, we’re all routing for you! Vicki x
I feel for you Polly, my diagnosis was a year after I retired - mortgage paid off, savings in the bank ready to travel and generally behave badly, then this. Crying is fine and actually quite important. I’m glad you, like me have found this forum invaluable both with info and emotional support.
Good luck tomorrow lovely and crying is good it’s what you need at times x
We are all holding our breath with you for your appointment tomorrow and like Vicki says don’t be surprised if tomorrow doesn’t answer everything for you but you are on the path now and things will move swiftly x
Try and do something nice today, gonout for dinner or to the cinema, anything that distracts you for a least a couple of hours is good x
Let us know how you get on
Hugs

I'm sat pondering on my own with the dog,husband at work,son out..my son has a learning disability and is on the autistic spectrum,he's a big strong healthy lad but doesn't really understand what's going on at the moment and isn't supportive. its not his fault its just how he is.
I said to my husband I'll be bloody fumeing if I don't get to enjoy the good times after all the tough stuff.I've been told I could be at the hospital two hours so I'm hopeing they'll do tests that need doing..
Part of me thinks I wish I'd never gone to the gps,I don't want they're to be anything wrong but if there's not I'll have gone through all this worry for nothing...but if I'd not gone...
Everything crossed for you for tomorrow. Please don't feel daft for having a cry, having a cry always made me feel better in a way and trust me we have all been there!. Do let us know how you get on. Kathy xx
Hi Polly , I’m some respects my story is similar , 31 years , just paid the mortgage off, husband retired one day and a cancer diagnosis the next . What kept me going was my first grandchild being born at the end of the very same week , you couldn’t make it up . I have my fingers crossed that you get good news tomorrow but if not you will have a great team with a plan and for anything you want to know you have us as well. Remember a good cry can relieve the stress so if you need to just let them flow. Will be thinking of you tomorrow . Julia x
Wishing you well for tomorrow - life has a habit of throwing spokes in our best laid plans - we’d retired early after farming for 27 yrs with no holidays to speak of as family and were looking forward to just doing our own thing - all I can say is crying is normal as is worry but you do find a way to cope x
Good luck Polly - I know all this seems to be a waiting game where the anxiety is just so high : just know we are routing for you and keep us posted xxx
