angea it's about them, not you. I had great support from husband and my son and his family. My friends are ok but they didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

Perhaps life is showing you what it is you can focus on. Stay hopeful and enjoy the special moments. Best wishes
Cath62, gosh you are so brave putting a post on Facebook, I’ve not done that yet… I love your advice to expect nothing, then get joy when something happens. Sending you lots of best wishes too.
