[Domjolly]

Just as the title says i will go first

Had our first home visit in the middle of November
Filled out papper work december and JAnuary
Had our prep febuary
And now have 3 sessions of home study left i think they may be heading for summer pannel for us those were the mutterings from sw on the prep group

Its all gone very quickly so far eeekk so near and yet so far

We have had loss awareness workshop, Prep group, medicals, CRBs and we are about to start home study. That's he order in our area but they seem do the order differently elsewhere.

We meet our new social worker soon and are excited/sacred/nervous/and a whole lot more.

First phone call/info evening July
Doing paperwork now
Prep grp the week after next
Hopefully home study will start soon after.

I forgot to say how long it took, open day (this time) July, initial visit from social worker September, loss awareness workshop and Prep group January, CRB January, Medicals February and meeting new social worker for start of hoe study in March, so just under 9 months so far.

Initial phone call Sept
Info morning Oct
Home visits & paperwork Jan - Feb
Prep group start next week (feeling rather nervous!), home study starts this month (a visit every two weeks for several months)
