I'm finding it hard to formulate my thoughts into a readable post and have tried several times since that Hospital appointment but I'm still struggling! As Danni says we don't have to believe the prognosis but it's difficult when it feels as though the Consultant takes a giant date stamp and stamps an expiry date firmly on your forehead leaving you reeling! However, anyone who knows me, knows that I do not pay any attention to expiry dates! As far as I'm concerned they are there to be challenged, to be proved wrong .... and although this may seem a much bigger challenge, I've no doubt I will exceed the expiry date even though I may have reached my Best Before date!
