Pash - your preaching was fine. I probably deserve it, regardless of what she has said and done. I really do wish I could be happy for her but I just can't. I'm done trying now. Luckily we have very little to do with her and her husband so it's not going to impact our lives too much.

I just got an email from my mum. One of her brothers has now been diagnosed with cancer. Right now that means my mum, my aunt, my uncle & a cousin all have it. I know a lot of people get it as they age but seriously this is getting ridiculous. Some good news though, a cousin's daughter has just had another baby (number 3 for her), I'm very happy for her but it still makes me a little sad about my situation.... no tears though.
