So basically on Thursday I finally told my tutor about everything that's been going on with my mum. I don't think he was expecting to hear that my mum was dying. Academically, I'm going to be monitored until my January exams, if things go bad in January I can either defer the exams until august next year or take the year out.

Early in 2004, when I was 58, I went to see my GP about my twice nightly visits to the toilet.

So we've had an emotional time of it lately, and last week felt quite sad because it was the first anniversary of losing grandad and mum hadn't remembered. She has had an awful lot on her mind t be fair, and I hadn't fully appreciated just how concerned she was about her latest MRI scan.
She phoned yesterday afternoon in floods of tears and I just assumed the worst until she managed to stutter out the words "it's good news" before bursting into tears again!
