(12,326 posts)I need to swap visas when I return and also my partner has cancer, so I have to get back quite quickly. Its a cluster. Id wanted to hop over for a quick visit earlier in the year, and my mum said it wasnt worth the stress and worry if something were to go sideways
At worst I can fly to Canada and then have family come get me as its not too far over the border.
