Ginny has gone

So sorry that you have both had to go through this, but I am not ashamed to say that I had tears in my eyes.

You have raised your daughter well: she made a very mature and considered decision with you.

Please look after yourselves.
 
How sad. I’m sorry you weren’t able to have a happier ending to this story but hope you can move on in time and know that she’s no longer suffering.
 
Thank-you everyone. Katie has read this thread and has really appreciated the comments. Right up to (and in fact beyond) the last minute my head was just a clamour of 'go ahead with it, pull out, go ahead, pull out'. And although I still have strong waves of anxiety and guilt about whether it was the right thing, I just don't let myself dwell on it. I have worked in the addictions field and there is a saying Never Question The Decision - once you have quit. NQTD is my new mantra. We thought about it long and hard, made the choice we felt was right at the time and there is nothing to be gained from wondering now what might have been. So mostly now I just feel sad. The anxiety, stress is getting better and I do feel a certain sense of relief now it's over.
 
So sorry. I think you put a lot of thought into your decision beforehand and undoubtedly made the right decision. I hope you and your daughter can move on eventually and have happier times ahead. RIP Ginny
