Thanks everyone, you would all be the same in my situation as you honestly have no choice. The weirdest thing is when we go out in the car and I see people walking their dog or going to work and their lives are all moving on but mine is stuck in this weird place that isn’t my life anymore but I am still here. It’s the strangest feeling that I could never explain. I have to be grateful for the amazing life I had before this as it really was, most of us here can afford nice holidays and a decent lifestyle and not everyone gets that so I have been blessed.
We have booked a cabin for the weekend before Xmas only an hour from home, 7 en-suite bedrooms with 2 hot tubs to share with family and we will do Xmas the weekend before so on the day DH has no stress of cooking just looking after me. That is my main focus at the minute, to make that and be well enough to enjoy and remember it. I can only hope and ask you all to hope with me that I get that and if I do I will be happy. The balance is due end of next month so it will be decision time based on my health and what my brain is doing.

I’m pretty sure every single one of us is hoping Dani, and I’m not sure that I for one would be as brave as you in your situation.
I guess you are right that you have no choice, but I would just be so angry, believe me you are amazing.

If anyone deserves that bit of luck Dani, it’s you. More than anything else I really hope you get to enjoy the Christmas you planned with your family.

I do get angry and deep down I suppose the anger is there but I guess I just want what time I have left with Doug and Ethan to be as special as it can be under the circumstances and being angry won’t change anything. I do have to let it out sometimes though, it isn’t good to keep it in but focusing on our few little plans we have (have booked HP studio tour for late November and Chester zoo/Cheshire oaks Christmas shopping first weekend in December) to try and reach Christmas with my brain still working helps to keep me focused and I guess more positive?
I had my nails done for Disney the other day, it’s surprising how good just getting your nails done makes you feel when you don’t get out and about much anymore!

You really are inspirational Dani. But what you say is so true, when you don't have a great deal of energy you don't need to be wasting any of it negatively. That is definitely easier said than done but you seem to be managing it really well
It's good to have a good cry or scream sometimes too to offload the frustration.
So important that you have plans ahead - gives you something to look forward to and plan for when you have not so good days.
Keep at it, you are incredible 💝
