Bless you @Anniebiker16 welcome to the community. 🙂 You've been through a lot. Have you got a good support system that helps when needed?
Please don't worry too much at this point about the recent announcement. We're very much at the start, and entering a consultation period which will allow us a chance to respond.
It might be worth taking a look at a discussion where a lot of our members are coming together to share their concerns/questions, and support one another. This is called - The Green Paper Discussion
