We too are very fortunate with our family and friends in that everyone was/is so excited and supported our decision (anyone that mattered in our lives anyway). We have had a couple of instances where people we barely knew and some elderly relatives
thought it necessary to make comments about the risks of IA and were we prepared for this risk
(as if we had not put any thought into the decision) but that's as far as it went at the time and now that everyone has had the pleasure of meeting Adrian we have acquired some new IA fans!!!
