Hello DoodleBug.
I'm new here, so don't have the kind of wisdom the others have.
But it's late here and I just saw your post. And wanted to say that I hope by today, the pain has become a bit more tolerable.
I kind of understand what you mean about losing so many things...for me too, my world is getting smaller and smaller. Over the past 10 days holidays, I have stayed home for most of the time. Small family activities but I'm not up to much else....I have a fear that this horrible Monster will shrink my world to the point that no one remembers who I am.
