Oh Monz, sorry to hear you've had a rubbish New Year. I would be devastated if my mum said that to me - but as an outsider I would say to try to focus on that it is treatable. Also, that bloke sounds like a complete *insert suitable word* to end things by text - seriously needs to grow up! So in the long run you're better off without him.Debt as at 5 June 2023 - £15,600.89

First of all I'm so sorry to hear about your mum I wish her a speedy I recovery xx
Second of all HAPPY NEW YEAR
and thirdly count yourself lucky with the wimp that's not someone you want in your life if they don't have the decency to speak to you face to face xx

Thanks Twiggy and Abba. My mum is being optimistic and so will I be and be there for her whenever I can be. They are going to cut the bit out and then decide if radiotherapy is needed. Think this starts next week again I cannot be sure not taken everything in.
As for him I am a mixture of emotions but spose plus side lost more weight and back under 9 stone. I have been forcing myself to eat.
This year I am not gonna be so stringent on this debt. I want focus on me n my boy for Florida savings.. plus obv debtxx
