Newly Diagnosed

ELiza76 7 months ago

I just got my diagnosis on Monday and wanted to say hi!

I'm 48 and my specialist subjects are Mary Queen of Scots/Tudor History, reading and knitting/crochet. Whilst i have told some friends and work colleagues, i haven't told the wider team at work.

Tips and tricks are welcome!

Thanks

Liz

Hi Liz. Congratulations on your diagnosis. I was diagnosed last year aged 41. My specialist subjects are music, football, land enclosure, and poetry. I informed colleagues of my diagnosis individually, though you could do a 'big reveal' - perhaps by email, as it might be a bit daunting to do it in a face-to-face team meeting.
