Hi Rebel, life will change forever but not always in bad ways. Our life is so different to our old one that I sometimes think I dreamt the old life. But as hard as it gets I would never say Steve or I are unhappy. You learn along the way what really matters and you do learn to take it day by day. All the best to you, pls keep us all posted and remember we are all here anytime you need a chat.
