I'm meeting with a solicitor on Tuesday morning. She is really nice, I have met with her before and she isn't at all pushy.
I felt slightly panicked but am more calm now. This is really hard because I feel like this is the first step towards D and it is so scary. I suddenly feel very young! Which is silly really because it is the same any age you are. I have put my 'I can do this on my own' thing aside and asked my sister to come to the appointment with me and she is great so hopefully it won't be too bad.
Mishka, your post brought made me well up - thank you. It really helped.
