Hi Amanda,
No you are not alone believe me, I live in Stone and my partner was diagnosed in February this year. He is also on the Trail treatment, just finished 8th cycle and now going forward for SCT Initial preparation in next week before harvesting.
I work full time, so unable to meet up during week, but hey would be glad to meet some evening or just chat over line.
After so many months of pressure, you do start to wear down. He is only 55 so similar age group. Where are you under, we have attended Stafford but transplant will take place at North Staffs ( hopefully for Christmas )
Keep smiling 🙂
