DH and I have been together for 13 years, he's Chinese but has lived in England for 15+ years, we have two DC's 9 and 7, who can poorly speak Mandarin but not read or write anything.
DH is an only child with Elderly parents, for the past few years, his parents have become a real worry for him, they're all alone in a big city, a lot of their friends have either moved away to live with relatives or have sadly passed on.
Last summer I finally agreed to move to China and have the in laws live with us, so they'll always have company or extra help. They don't speak English and I don't speak a word of Mandarin, although I've been taking lessons the past few months.
Everything has been going smoothly so far, DH and I managed to secure work for when we move, the kids have been accepted into an International school, we've got a property to live in, all that's left is to book the tickets but I'm completely and utterly petrified.
I don't even know why, the mere thought of getting flight tickets and moving, makes me sick, I didn't feel like this before but now I'm so bloody scared, it's too late to back out but I can't help feeling like this, I don't know what to do.
