What I would change: I would have asked about a slower schedule on day one.

Started this week and I have not told my mother and I do not think I will.

Week one and I have read the leaflet three times, which was two times too many.

SaffHastings, UK

Week three and I have found this place, which is the actual news.

Started at sixty-two and I feel late to everything, and everybody here has been lovely about that.

MaritGroningen, NL

I wish somebody had told me that a restart is an ordinary shape and nobody would think less of me.

Week two and the nausea arrived exactly on schedule, which was almost reassuring.

Nissa That is a lot to be holding. I hope somebody is asking about you.

I would tell them to write down three questions before the first appointment.

Started, stopped, started again. That is my whole beginning and it is fine.
