I hope this makes your life better by providing some better answers.

My experience was that the phrase "knowledge is power" does hold true.

We're always here to talk.

Best wishes

I'm a big believer that knowledge is power and would rather have the information that be left guessing, but, depending on how much you were expecting this, it can still be a lot to deal with. You're amongst friends here and many of us will have gone through similar things ourselves.
