You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 11 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
take care, Benjamin. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Soweto
Thinking of you and your family, Benjamin. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
You're not alone, Benjamin. Hope the doctors have good news. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
