Morning folks. Just popping by with a reminder that we do advise all our members to be aware that not everyone on t'internet is who they say they are, and that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

OP we hope you're able to use some of the advice other posters are giving and manage to sort something out before Christmas. Best of luck.
