Sounds like you are feeling very frustrated and depressed - having a hard time accepting that all this has happened to you and finding your "new normal". Where is the fairness?

We all go through this and it comes back every now and then, but mostly you have to do what you can and forget about what you "used" to be able to do. We are here NOW. We have TODAY and we should try to be grateful for that. Try to count your blessings - an old and trite but true statement and one that actually works.

We're here for you. Keep on keeping on!
