    Thanks Happy, he should be ok and we have been through this sort of thing earlier this year as I had bone cancer but am now clear. Hopefully his situation should be similar to mine. I wont be happy though until its been removed and we know how aggressive it was. He has private health care through my work but wont have the operation this month as he doesnt want to ruin Christmas bless him. I have nagged him till Im blue in the face but he wont budge, consultant has said it wont make any difference to his health to wait till Jan but I just want it out.

  • Well done Sarah that's great, when are you due? Is the saving to be used as wage top up or to buy baby stuff with? X
