CAUTION! VERY LONG POST! It doesn't bother me if you don't read it.
I'm glad you feel better today.
As for the anxiety I cannot much help; so far it's been a very anxious day for me too.
What time is your family get together... are you there already?
And the question you asked earlier about your family get together is a difficult subject for me because I don't know your family so I don't know how to address your particular situation without possibly hitting a nerve... the bleak prognosis of your aunt's illness (if it were my aunt anyway) would be quite difficult to handle, especially around so many other people.
Maybe after the get together you will be less anxious.
I do hope so.
And the part about losing one's mind is also a difficult subject for me because each person's mind is so different.
Thus I insert my 'well wishes' again.
I hope you let us know how you're doing afterwards too (the get together... any family get-together of my own has always created much anxiety beforehand and then less anxiety later, but I have no idea if that is what happens to you or not).
I see you traversed my page. I think it will halt future visitor messages at least for a while... that was much of the reason I did it... many of the messages I've had have resulted in my feeling very patronized... I don't know if you know the Andy Griffith show, but Barney always used to say... "Nip it, nip it in the bud").
It has stopped the messages so far! Statiscally speaking, there would likely be some by now.
