I saw a GP today; I have a prescription for real pain relief, a referral to the practice counsellor, more HRT cream, and she's going to chase my missing appointments with consultants up. This is good.
Mormor Greta's funeral has been set - Friday week. Rob has booked his flights etc, and my mother is coming to help me while he's gone.
I even have some clothes that I can wear this winter. I just need to exchange them in Marks & Spencer for the right size - which I can do, because I'm over my virus. This also means that I can go and associate with my friends with babies again, always a bonus.
