SUE!
I have just sent you a really important pm, for your attention asap!
Sorry, only just seen it and have now replied. Been an eek last 36 or so hours which started with a phone call just as I was starting on my pack up at work from mum worried about dad.
Cue a quick phone call to my manager who rushed back (she had just pulled into her driveway after I relieved her at work), a dash to mum and dad's and then a dash to the hospital. They thought he had had another heart attack and possibly another stroke but it thankfully turned out to be an angina attack (albeit a bad one) and a reaction to the GTN spray which made his blood pressure crash and mimic a stroke.
He's fine now and home.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.

Big op on Monday week, removal of most of my colon. As soon as I've recovered from that, I have to have a second op for something else.
Not a happy bunny. I'd much prefer to be tagged. That made me smile, although I'm not smiling a lot at the moment.
Updating my will. Power of attorney. Make a list of passwords and where everything is. So much paperwork!
Oh gosh, hope everything goes well. Thinking of you xxWe made it!

Start with:

Then try these:

https://ukandeu.ac.uk/eu-elections-voting-system-explained-dhondt-worry/
which shows what a big difference the 'constituency' sizes can make
