Patience is a wonderful virtue Beth…. I’ve fortunately been able to develop my patience through my life experiences of being a long term carer for my wife Carole…

It’s not just the waiting that’s painful, Beth, but the drip of results I can’t turn away from that are eating away at my spirit.

It’s the waiting and the constant hum of the news as my husband obsessively watches for results. I hide in the laundry room. Everyone fears entering – so I am safe. All I can hear is the hypnotic hum of the dryer!

I keep remembering how I was feeling on Tuesday night when I went to bed more shocked than I was four years ago. I don’t mind waiting a little bit longer.
