They really do have to check to be sure. It's good you have this time to prepare yourself, just in case, but better to wait the few extra days before setting off anyone else's anxiety (unless they would be a support for YOU ... in which case, enlist them now!). And way to go for finding this forum ... it's a fantastic resource! I didn't find it as soon as I might have, and I wish I had. I still find it helpful, even this far out.
((hugs)) for while you wait, and just remember that you are not alone.
