@Sinic...
Thank you.
If I can help cheer others, I'm happy.
Early days are often (and rightly!) worry-filled.
And subsequent times... well, what can and might happen can get 'pretty bl**dy grim'.
So then... best not to think about it? Perhaps.
My own view is 'be aware of fact, try to look on the bright side - things could always be worse (even when we think they can't)'.
My best hopes and wishes to you and your partner/family.
There's a lot of people here who've been through stuff you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy. And, to help others, they're happy to share their knowledge and experience.
Me, I can only crack a joke-or-two (other posts of mine are similarly irreverent) in hope of temporarily lightening someone's mood.
Unless an airplane engine falls on my head, or 'doughnut overdose' gets me first... my own Pca will almost certainly kill me - I just don't know when. So, meantime, I'm getting on with what's left of my life and genuinely enjoying things. (And, as part of 'putting my stuff in order, I've done a lot of tidying-and-labelling recently.)
