Hi Amandahill89,
I appreciate you reaching out about your difficult circumstances. You are going through a lot right now in so many different ways and I hope you have some support networks around you in addition to this forum as no one needs to juggle all of that on their own! Do you have any close friends or family who you've been able to share this with? Have you considered booking an appointment with a GP to organise a referral for a care plan? I'm sure anyone in your shoes would not be feeling themselves and I can only imagine how difficult it is to look forward to your wedding when there are so many other things happening all at once. I really recommend being as gentle and kind to yourself as possible, do as many nice, relaxing self-care practices as you can find time for. Make yourself your number 1 priority right now until things get better. For example, book yourself in for a massage or binge watch something that makes you laugh. Take each day at a time and hour at a time and ask yourself frequently "what do I need right now?". If thats sleep, take a nap, if thats food, treat yourself to meal you love. Don't be afraid to ask others for support as people enjoy being helpful and feeling needed. You don't need to go through all of this alone. Is there one nice thing you can think of that you could do for yourself today/ tomorrow that would be relaxing for you? Wishing you nothing but the best!

Hello Amanda, and a warm welcome to the site and first of all, congratulations on becoming pregnant but deeply sorry to hear about your grandpa suffering from cancer, this is certainly not something we'd ever want to hear.
If the real estate was at all helpful, they should be finding a new place for you and your finance, especially after telling that you're about to have a child.
Is there a chance that the new owner may still want to rent the place out to you until you are able to find another place, or it may be an investment to buy this place and do not necessarily want to move in, so make contact with either the real estate selling the place and/or your current estate agency.
Please let us know and get back when you're available.
Geoff.
