Thanks everyone eventually plucked up the courage and called Mum's specialist nurse, who did referral for counselling…… 1st appointment on 5th April 🙂

Thanks Jean… think I will contact Mum's specialst nurse at the hospital ~(Doncaster, South Yorkshire) to find out if any available. Am sure it will help me deal with it as most of the time I seem to ignore the fact.

All feeling more raw at moment then when first diagnosed (last Nov 2009),but think that because of the infoday saturday, so making me face up to it.

I know I have to look after me too, I have 7 year old and 21 mth old twins that keep me extremely busy!

Hope all still going well with your husband too xx

Thanks to you all, I am sure somehow we'll get used to the MM over time, and the routine visits to consultant will all become part of normal life.
I know that everything is best while no treatment is needed, and that I have to deal with my thoughs and logic.
Does anyone know if there are any counsellling services offered to family members?

I went to info day on Saturday, was good, but think scared me more. Made me realise just how bad the treatments can be. My mum is 72 and guess I am thinking that she'll only have 5-7 years, as know stem cell transplant not an option.
Oh well onwards and upwards, one day at a time
