    So sorry to hear your news, my condolences to you and your family xx
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Thanks everyone for the good wishes. We've had the funeral now so things should start getting back to normal. Next job is to sort out her estate, along with Mr H's siblings. There will be an inheritance but it won't be massive because she was in residential care for a few years. Whatever it is, it will go towards the unsecured debt.
    Hopefully I can get to spend a bit more time on here now most of the organising is done.
    LBM Dec 2011. Aimed, but failed, to clear all unsecured debt by Feb 2019. Finally free of unsecured debt 21st May 21!

    Debt Dec 11: Unsecured £69,579 + Mortgage £59,948 = £129,527
    Debt May 21: Unsecured ZERO! ZILCH! Mortgage £22,332
