Thanks everyone!
And thanks to CANDC for adding trigger. Completely forgot at the time, then remembered when woke this morning. Hope it hasn't affect anyone adversely.
An amazing friend, who I shared this news with last night, has sent me a lengthy message of support. Have read it 3 times already this morning and it's brought tears to my eyes. He's very perceptive, almost a six sense, but like many others cannot offer any concrete answers.
Visiting mother later, hoping her attitude has changed. Methinks that's a step too far...
