There is nothing you could have done to prevent it, as nor could I. Bad luck they said...yet they still carry on about diet and alcohol contributors...yeah I don't really drink and have a healthy diet. So certainly wasnt through my doing at all. They really don't know, they can only suggest the logical things to reduce.
Take a deep breath and one thing at a time.
