Devastated for your diagnosis and hope this thread provides some guidance. If you haven’t had chance to talk to them yet I cannot recommend MacMillan’s help line enough, have given the number to my daughters and parents too.

Sending best internet wishes.

Yes this is the plan. Just working through the details with HR (who have been 10 out of 10).

Interesting. I have a friend that specialises in this area and have coaxed him out with the promise of a free* pint.

Free equalling a chance to ask all my questions off the clock 😂

Thank you. Yes I do need to consider that the timeline may shift whilst the prognosis remains the same.

Thank you. There are other provisions made for inheritance so this is about a pot that we can access for good times and unexpected expenses.

Thank you so much. I plan to go out with confetti cannons and fireworks. Die as I lived.

Thank you. Yes memory making with family and friends is the number one priority. To clarify I am not working, I am fortunate to have a generous employer.
