.  Hiya devonFRATTONiser.   Back in november 2022 I was told that I had about a year to live.  I have now gone 8 months past my 'sell-by date'.  Of course I am very much aware that I am living on borrowed time.  I must admit that most of the time I am okay........but occasionally, if I am awake in the middle of the night, that's when it really hits home that I am dying.  I wish I could offer you some words of comfort, but as one of my friends admitted to me, what on earth do you say to a person that knows that their life is coming to an end?  The only thing I can say to you is that those of us who are in the same boat understand exactly how you are feeling.  You will get your up days and your down days.  I expect that you are still trying to process this dreadful news.  It can take a while for it to fully sink in.  The people here  on this forum are very kind and I drop by from time to time.  I am not here as much as I used to be, because I spend a LOT of time sleeping now, but hopefully you will receive replies from other folks who are terminal and who understand how it feels to be in this situation.   Take care, my thoughts are with you, xx
