Which one sentence changed your life?

Charleygirl how dreadful a 'bedside manner'. I hope despite the horrible shock you managed to tell him that somehow.

The young fellow facing me sat rocking in his chair, hands behind his head, when he said you have Macular Degeneration, there is no cure and you are going to go blind. I wished he would fall off his chair!

You're pregnant. Wonderful and totally unexpected news.

You are no longer a part of mine and (our GC's) name and are to stay away. From our estranged son, almost 6 years ago.

It’s a boy!! (After several girl babies.)

Its definitely inflammatory arthritis, you'll be registered partially sighted and disabled within the next 10 years.
With that the ophthalmologist turned on his heel and left me.

I was 47.

There’s the head, the body.....and there’s another head. Twins!

You have little girl!

Yes, you do have multiple sclerosis.

Just gave birth to my second child to be told by midwife
"did you say you would like a girl, yes I said, well that's what you have got this time" I was beyond thrilled.

You've passed ( 11+)

So many, but the one that totally changed my life - and for the better - was The Wonderful Man's marriage proposal. A few hours ago he arrived home from a trip to a remote part of Africa where he's been working as a volunteer on a building project, and even after more than thirty years together I was so overjoyed to see him again my heart was going like the clappers.

Similar here, Cherytree - after 2 misses when dd was already late 30s and newly pregnant again, I had come to dread answering the phone until we got the ecstatic call to say, 'I just had the 8 week scan and everything's fine!'

You are no longer fit to work and will never be able to teach again.

I was devastated, but now I love not having to work.

There is a heart beat !!

After what was thought to be second miscarriage.
My daughter finally got her baby and us our first grandchild.

Alima and for everyone with sad memories.

Some happy memories too, which is lovely.

“I’m sorry, there is nothing more we can do for him”. The doctors about my Dad. He died 46 years ago today. ?

"Would you take this back for me"

On holiday in Italy with mum and dad. I'd exchange looks and smiles with a guy holidaying with his cousin. We were on a day trip and he'd bought his mum a handbag and didn't want to carry it.
Still together 46 yrs later.

"Do you remember me?"

First line of an email I received in 2002, from the fellow who'd been my first boyfriend. I hadn't seen him in 37 years, but yes I did remember him .

We got married in 2008 .

I have been asked if I would like to take very early retirement and I said yes.

In 1985 - I've got the order!

96,000 units to be manufactured within 6 weeks - it turned our business round for the next 16 years and got us this house.

Would you like to dance, hic?

Said by a tipsy chap at my office Christmas dance on December 19 1969. He proposed five weeks later after a Burns Night Dinner!

Five not give.

"I've got some old finals papers, these questions haven't come up for a while, would you like to go through them?"

Of the seven questions on our finals papers, give of them were the ones we had studied on that ward. I passed and my career was set.?

"We have reached a diagnosis you have multiple sclerosis".
