People are good

I'm posting here because I have to get it out and there's no-one at the moment to say it to.  I don't need to tell any of you what a crappy time the months after diagnosis are.  It just seems so overwhelming.  Well, I can't go into details but I've been overwhelmed by practical support today that has taken a huge amount of worry off my shoulders.  All I was hoping for was some time to sort out a plan and I just got the word that things have been taken care of.  We often hear the negative about people but in my experience they are mostly pretty good... and sometimes amazingly so.
This forum is a really good example of how generous people are.  I would have found it so much harder to cope without the support of all of you who have so freely given of your time and experience and gone out of your way to help (thanks again for the parcel, @onemargie).
