Hey AnnaT, Thanks for the support. It sure is hard. Hopefully thing will start to improve now that he's back home.

HI mrsmac, I don't work so I don't have that friend base. I have a couple of really good friends but they live in the city and I'm out in Bakewell. Not only that but none of them have children. I like the idea of water aerobics. I was thinking about going to Palmerston pool for some swimming and now I know that I can do that, that's awesome! Thanks for that info.
