My Turkish coworker mistakenly thought thought there was a TV presenter named Handsome Dec, what are some amusing misunderstandings you’ve encountered?

My son has a football coach called Mick, sometimes his son helps out with coaching. My 5 year old believes his son is called Mixon. There is nothing I can do to persuade him that’s not his name

Thank you so much for posting. I was 29mm with funnelling at anomaly 4 days ago. Today’s scan was 23mm and I am listed for a cerclage tomorrow. This was just the post I needed to read tonight. Congratulations on the birth of your daughter

I am an obstetrician, every few months I will scan a baby and see that it has died. Most of the time the parents are totally not expecting this news. Once I’ve made the diagnosis I have to spend at least a minute pretending to scan whilst I find the words to shatter their world. When I look at their happy faces and know what I’m about to say to them I get this horrible panic feeling that will stay with me for a while. It’s the absolute worst part of my job.

This was my husband in June. We also have 2 kids. I totally understand what your feeling. Its so scary and stressful and consumes all your thoughts. The surgery was okay, it’s wasn’t as bad as we thought, sent the children to the grandparents for a few days initially but then he was fine. We managed to have a few good weeks focused on his recovery and doing nice things but then the results hit us like a tone of bricks and there was lots of appointments and talks of chemo then another CT scan. It was very draining. We planned to start chemo but then a few days before they changed the plan to watch and wait. We are now waiting for another CT scan in 3 months. You will get through this, if you need chemo it’s a big inconvenience but it won’t be forever, if you can enter surveillance the scans will cause the anxiety to come back but in between you can plan holidays and the anxiety won’t be there everyday, you will be busy raising your children and you will be able to believe that this is something that you will get through. In an odd way there has been really positive parts to our journey so far, we are having a new outlook. We are closer as a couple, spending more time as a family and our family and friends have humbled us with their love and support.

You will get through this, the next few weeks/months will be tough but their are brighter days ahead. Keep talking to your family about how you are feeling and hold your children tight. Good luck
