    Mooloo, could you request to a board guide that the thread be locked if it hasn't been done already? Unfortunately regardless of the wishes of the OP people do tend to keep coming back and putting their twopennorth in, so it's probably going to keep getting dragged back up again otherwise, despite Molly41's wishes. It's probably the only way to put it to rest.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I wish Molly well, but also hope she can say what her illness/prognosis is.

    Some of us have relatives who may be facing an auto immune disease diagnosis.

    If it's not appropriate to post, please PM me.

    Molly may be a very private person, but now is not the time for pride.
    She makes no mention of what she is looking for. Is it £2,000 or £10,000. or more?
    There are loads of people here to help with advice. They do need more info though.

    Don't be shy as you could be any one of millions, so no one can identify you.

    Unless you tell everything, no one can truly help.

    I wish Molly and her family well and will pray for them.

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
