Dave,
it was an absolute pleasure to meet you last night, and the rest of the fellowship in Eastcote. Being able to relate to the problems faced by others, and still being faced, has reassured me that I am not alone in dealing with this illness. It may only be the first short step, but it's feels a bit like a Neil Armstrong step on the moon!
Had a chat with my wife when I got home, and although we have difficult times ahead and problems will not be solved instantly, it felt like I had the strength to understand her feelings a bit more and stop being selfish in only focussing on my hurt and grief.
Now I am looking forward to a day at a time, where I can enjoy life without hiding away from the challenges ahead.
See you at Uxbridge on Monday, for the second step of a lifetime's journey.
best wishes.
Ron.
