Hi @Lythe,
I now see the future just one day at a time. I try to stay in the moment. Practice meditation. Meditation is nor about emptying the mind but bring yourself into your breath. Focus just on that and just let the thoughts slip by. The thoughts come but just let them go and breath. Try this even for 10 mins to start and keep practicing it.
I think everyone here has had to wait, wait wait and I certainly wasn't good at that but I am learning to accept that I must wait. So hard.
I don't talk about prognosis. I don't ask even. I try not to have expectations but rather say to myself...i accept what my outcome is or I accept how things are that I can not change.
I hope the celebration goes well for you and the family. Sending hugs xx
